SABRINA SOURJAH BIOGRAPHY

Sabrina Sourjah believes leadership can feel lighter and still drive extraordinary results. As an executive coach, writer, and keynote speaker based in Toronto, she helps mission-driven leaders turn empathy into strength and authenticity into impact. Her work is grounded in a simple truth: when leaders lean into trust — in themselves, in others, and in their purpose — they unlock performance that feels both sustainable and fulfilling.

Before founding her coaching practice, Sabrina Sourjah spent a decade in corporate roles, including at Nike Inc., where she witnessed firsthand how high-performing teams thrive when clarity and compassion coexist. That experience, across sectors like technology, finance, and global business, gave her an insider’s understanding of the pressures leaders face and the cultures that shape them. It also sparked her conviction that true success emerges not from striving harder but from leading in alignment and integrating focus, flow, and emotional honesty.

Certified by the International Coaching Federation (ICF), Sabrina Sourjah is also trained in positive intelligence (PQ), emotional intelligence (EQ), neuro-linguistic programming (NLP), business coaching, and team coaching. Her approach blends evidence-based insight with deep human understanding, guiding leaders and teams beyond surface-level behavior change toward genuine transformation. Her sessions help audiences navigate work stress, difficult conversations, confidence, and emotional intelligence with grounded, practical tools that restore clarity and self-trust.

Sabrina Sourjah’s own lived experience as a woman of color, immigrant, introvert, and Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) shapes the compassion and nuance she brings to every stage. She speaks openly about belonging, courage, and identity, offering language to the unspoken tensions of leadership. Through her company, Salmon Run Coaching, she designs talks and workshops that help teams balance structure with intuition, performance with presence, and ambition with ease.

Her individual coaching clients come from organizations such as Amazon, Salesforce, LinkedIn, PayPal, Accenture, and the World Wildlife Fund. She has delivered workshops for the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board, Toronto Public Library, Dress for Success Toronto, and YMCA of Greater Toronto, and spoken at conferences including the Leadership Conference for Women in Government Relations in Washington DC and the Kindfulness Symposium in Toronto.

Beyond the stage, Sabrina Sourjah extends her message through a bi-weekly LinkedIn newsletter and podcast exploring how workplaces can evolve into spaces of purpose, trust, and well- being. Together, her platforms amplify a movement toward cultures where leaders feel supported, connected, and fully themselves.

Whether she’s facilitating a leadership retreat, delivering a keynote on sustainable leadership and team trust, or coaching a team through challenge and change, Sabrina Sourjah’s goal is constant: to help leaders feel more human, not just for the people they lead, but for themselves. Her work reminds audiences that leading with heart and clarity isn’t a weakness; it’s the foundation of lasting influence and collective growth.
