Who am I?

Where do I stand and who do I want to be?

Where do I go and what's the best for me?

In this inspiring book of memoir and poetry, biotech scientist turned award winning educator, speaker, and progress specialist Mehrnaz Bassiri takes us from her childhood in Iran through two immigrations and a host of hard-earned lessons before she settles in Canada and into herself. She must overcome cultural repressiveness, crushing social pressures, selective mutism, sex discrimination and personal trauma in order to unleash her entrepreneurial spirit and find personal peace. Through hearing about her journey of self discovery and the insights that sculpted her path to her passion and life's work, we are moved to ask ourselves whether we too can benefit from investigating our motivations, aspirations and personal histories. Mehrnaz invites us to try while at the same time she surprises us with her own touching and thought provoking story.

Bassiri, Mehrnaz: - In 2011, Mehrnaz Bassiri made the riskiest and most rewarding decision of her professional life: she traded a career in biotech for a solo entrepreneurial venture in educational development. And she has never looked back. Relying on the critical thinking skills she honed as part of her STEM background and the resilience she gained because of a remarkable and inspiring personal story, Mehrnaz went on to found MyGradeBooster. Her business success led Mehrnaz to receive Futurpreneur Canada's "The Sky's Your Limit Entrepreneur of the Year" award. Her dedicated mentorship has helped others discover the power of perseverance, overcoming failures, and learning from mistakes. Since becoming a successful business owner, Mehrnaz has also become a writer, a speaker, and a progress specialist. She has a Master of Science from the University of British Columbia, and she has been featured at TEDxChilliwack, in TED Ideas, Thrive Global, the Huffington Post, Global News, and Addicted2Success. Mehrnaz has lived, worked, and studied in Canada, England, Iran, and Japan. She currently lives in British Columbia, Canada where she enjoys hiking, writing poetry and walking her dog.
