About

Amina AITai (pronounced AH-MIN-UH) is an award-winning executive coach and leadership trainer, proud immigrant and chronic illness advocate.  A leading coach to notable leaders, executives and founders—Amina’s mastery is in connecting us to our brilliance and teaching us to live and lead from it each day. As a woman of color of Iraqi descent, she often works with marginalized communities to help them realize possibilities in a way that honors their particular lived experiences. She is the author of the, The Ambition Trap, with Penguin/The Open Field.

Amina is an Entrepreneur Magazine expert-in-residence, a Forbes contributor and was named one of Success Magazine’s Women of Influence.

As a graduate of NYU with a degree in marketing and economics, she started her career with luxury brands and worked for companies such as Cartier, Dolce & Gabbana and Vera Wang before co-founding a marketing agency to work with emerging female entrepreneurs.

She takes a holistic approach to coaching examining any blocks in the mindset, in our bodies and in how we lead.

Testimonials

“We made a major change during our offsite, focusing on the people and bringing in a wonderful external speaker, Amina, who helped us build a gold mindset and really challenged us to think about what is enlivening us and what is depleting us. The feedback we got was phenomenal, one of our attendees said ‘Thank you for breaking the mold!’ in regards to bringing the “How to Cultivate a Gold Mindset” session to our offsite. Amina was engaging and we all learned how to better optimize our environment, no matter what ‘life marathon’ we are running.”

“Amina AlTai hosted a “How to Cultivate a Gold Mindset” session at our team offsite of about 80 people and the entire team walked away inspired. We loved working with her from the first kick off to through the follow up session she hosted with a small group. I’d highly recommend working with her!”
