Dawn Taylor welcomes Navid, Principal at Aultrust Financial out of Vancouver, to share his lived experiences and knowledge about what is happening in Iran right now. Navid explains a brief history of Iran and how things changed when the regime took power to lend context to the protests and executions happening there now.
Navid sheds light on how open and inclusive Iran was just 40 years ago. When the king, the Shah, of Iran left and the Islamic .Republic of Iran seized power, Iran became controlled by a regime that then waged war against Iraq and instated strict religious and moral restrictions on the population. The protests now were trigged by the murder of Mahsa Amini for having a lock of her hair showing, but they encompass much more than hair coverings. Navid explains how Iran, and especially Iranian youths, are protesting the regime and lack of human rights freedoms, and are losing their lives for the cause……
Dawn and Navid have a very open, frank, and revealing conversation designed to give Western listeners the truth about Iran, the Iranian people, and what they are fighting for. Navid shares insight about Iran’s former openness to all religions and cultures, how many people were born after the regime’s take over, what the protests are truly about, and how the bulk of misinformation spread by Western media is planted by the regime itself. This is a powerful episode that everyone needs to hear.
About Navid:
Navid started his career in the software industry in 2003 as the founder of BITAA Technology, well before graduating from Simon Fraser University a few years later. As founder and operator, Navid was instrumental in building the company from the ground up and putting together people, processes, and technology to manage the operations with fluidity and efficiency.
In 2010, Navid changed his focus to real estate marketing for major development projects across Metro Vancouver. Combining his software and marketing background, he provided customized investment portfolio management solutions to developers and their investors in addition to providing digital marketing plans, implementing sales strategies, and ultimately selling products at a faster pace than the competition.
In 2015, Navid founded Aultrust Financial, a real estate development, and investment firm, leveraging his extensive operational experiences to oversee Aultrust internal processes and manage marketing and development activities, whilst he oversaw compliance and investor relations. Navid believes land development is highly regional, and successful investments require a deep understanding of the market in which one operates. Navid’s role in Aultrust is to provide connections to local players, inventory, and most importantly Municipality’s development processes and political tendencies.
Navid also owns and operates a complex and multifaceted education center with over 150 students and 20+ staff members within multiple locations in the Tri-City. The center requires operational accuracy and well-defined processes to ensure compliance with strict regulations on safety, security, and quality of care.
In addition to his work running funds and operations, he also serves on the Board of Directors of several educational and charitable organizations and is always looking for different ways to give back to the community by donating his time, energy, and resources to the causes he is most passionate about.

I felt like my life had been squandered a little bit in the season of having babies and people needing me. But after working with Dawn, I realize I have the potential for greatness. It was the first time in my life that I realized I actually have the potential to do amazing things.

I had been in therapy since I was 16, over 20 years of going to therapy before I met Dawn. But in 14-15 months of working with her, my brain has essentially rewired itself. How I view my friends, myself, and God has changed. But you have to buy in, and be willing to work through the tough stuff to get to the other side.
I Get It -
Life is Hard!
Like many of my clients, I’ve also felt ugly, useless, and forgotten.
I’ve gone through depression, molestation, and a brain aneurysm.
It took me years to understand what I had gone through and how to use my past to support others in conquering their fears and self talk.
That’s why I’ve condensed what I’ve learned into strategies to help you overcome your own stuff efficiently.
With multiple different certificates, training courses, and a whole lot of courage and stubbornness, I decided that if I could heal myself I could help others heal too.
