Anahita was born during the Islamic Revolution of Iran and spent her formative years under post-revolution Islamic rule. She was required to wear a hijab by age three. By age nine, she had a machine gun pointed at her head for the exposure of her hair. These early experiences shaped her direct understanding of repression especially the systemic silencing of women.
Anahita was born during the Islamic Revolution of Iran and spent her formative years under post-revolution Islamic rule. She was required to wear a hijab by age three. By age nine, she had a machine gun pointed at her head for the exposure of her hair. These early experiences shaped her direct understanding of repression especially the systemic silencing of women.
At fourteen, she immigrated to the United States. She was seeking freedom, but quickly discovered that patriarchy takes many forms. Assimilation came at a cost — of identity, of voice, of belonging. Like many immigrant girls, she internalized a double bind: be exceptional, but invisible. Achieve, but don't take up space.
Her twenties brought both expansion and unraveling. A marriage and divorce, substance use, and eventually, a spiritual awakening that would redirect the course of her life. That awakening a direct mystical encounter with the Divine Feminine. But the goddess did not lead her into temples. She led her into the underworld and then into the strip club.
For six years, Anahita lived a paradoxical life: teaching yoga and coaching women by day, and working as an exotic dancer by night. This was not a detour it was initiation. It was how long it took to heal the split inside her own psyche between the holy woman and the primal woman she had always been.
That deep integration became the bedrock of her work: guiding women to claim the full spectrum of their being and reconcile the opposites that live inside them light and shadow, discipline and desire, sacred and sensual.
Anahita’s work continues to deepen not from theory, but from lived experience, spiritual gnosis, and the ever-unfolding remembrance of her multidimensional Self.
But if you are ready to mature beyond the adult woman who’s learned how to work on her inner child… into the version of you who is anchored in divine purpose across every dimension of your life and you’re willing to commit to that embodiment with your whole self...
Then I cannot wait to sit with you in sacred space and do the real work we’ve been brought together to do.
