I'm Topaz Zafrir, a coach and consultant dedicated to helping you create a future aligned with your values, passions, and strengths—on both personal and business levels. I believe you already have what it takes to thrive—you just need a compassionate push toward clarity. That’s where I come in.
At just 13, I realized I had the ability to lead and inspire change. During a key moment in a youth movement, I stood before a group of 30 teenagers, all older than me, and decided to get them to join a group cheer. So, I started. Alone. Clapping and singing at the top of my lungs. It felt ridiculous, but I kept going. And then, one by one, they joined in. The feeling was deeply satisfying.
Later, my friends said I was brave—they wouldn’t dare to do it, fearing no one would follow. That’s when I realized people are often unaware of their power. I wasn’t better than them—it was simply that I dared: to put myself out there and risk failure. It came from the belief that change is possible—you just need to take action to achieve it. This belief continues to guide me today, driving me to take bold steps, such as relocating across the globe for love and starting a business in a foreign country.
The differences in people’s life experiences and what motivates them fascinated me, leading me to academia. I earned a B.A. in Social Sciences (Psychology, Sociology, and Anthropology) and an M.A. in Sociology with an Organizational Specialization. Beyond the classroom, life became my greatest teacher. Traveling the world, hiking, meditating, and living in diverse communities helped me develop a deeper understanding of connection and growth. In my professional journey, I wore many hats—from hiking guide and debate coach to project manager and customer success.
When I began my journey in business consulting, I realized that business owners and managers are, first and foremost, individuals before they are their roles. Therefore, I needed deeper 1:1 tools to create meaningful change. Returning to school, I earned a Life Coaching certification, equipping me with methods to guide clients through transformative growth. That’s when everything clicked in, and I knew I was ready.
Now, I’m here to help you gain clarity, recognize your strengths, and take action toward self-fulfillment. Will you dare to take the first step?
