Meet Nada Lena Nasserdeen of Rise Up For You in Irvine

Today we’d like to introduce you to Nada Lena Nasserdeen.

Thanks for sharing your story with us Nada Lena. So, let’s start at the beginning and we can move on from there.
After moving to Canada for love and resigning from my corporate job, my finances were in the red. With only $100 left in my bank account after the sudden divorce, I had no choice but to rely on credit. I was renting a vehicle to get around town. I had no idea what I was doing, and clearly financial management was a skill I had yet to acquire.

My former career was gone, and I was starting over. My love life was tattered, my heartbroken, and my health was suffering from it all. Literally, almost all aspects, every pillar of my life—relationships, money, career, love, and health—were in ruin. It was a harsh truth with which I had to come to terms. There was only one pillar that was still standing strong: my self-worth. Although I felt sad and lonely, I still valued and loved who I was inside.

I eventually found myself cobbling together the idea of the six pillars. How could I build lasting connections and relationships? How should I invest my money to create financial stability? What did I need to do in order to mend my broken heart? How could I maintain a healthy lifestyle when I was stressed as hell? I was on a mission to become my best self, and I finally realized that every pillar was a contributing factor. No longer was I simply cultivating this one -dimensional professional career woman. I realized my focus needed to be on the WHOLE PERSON.

Within one month, I was moving and grooving with the development of my new company, Rise Up For You. The accompanying podcast was released, featuring experts and thought leaders from around the world who have inspired others as well as myself. The website was up and running, and a plan was in full swing to empower and educate individuals and companies to start BECOMING THEIR BEST!

Today as the founder and CEO of Rise Up For You, TEDx Speaker, #1 Best Selling Author on Amazon, a certified Leadership and Career Confidence Coach, and a Woman Business Owner, we are coaching and working with individuals worldwide in both personal and professional development.

With over ten years of experience as a college professor and former top executive for an education corporation, I understand the importance of fusing education, empowerment, and leadership together as she works with her clients and speaks to audiences worldwide. I toured the world as a singer, have a Master’s degree in Administrative Leadership, and have coached and mentored over 100,000 individuals around the world on self-
empowerment, career strategy, and soft skills.

As the founder of Rise Up For You, it’s been an honor to be featured on hundreds of podcasts and radio shows as well as a motivational and educational speaker on platforms such as TEDx Talks, The Female Quotient, The California Human Resources Conference, Wonder Women Tech, The Human Gathering and more. In addition, Rise Up For You has been featured and worked with brands such as CBS, LA Fitness, Google Next 19, and more.

I’m a proud TEDx Women speaker, have been awarded the Chief’s Award from the Orange County Sheriff’s Department for my work in 2018 with at-risk youth and I’m a three-time finalist for The Emerging Woman-Owned Business Award from Connected Women of Influence.

I believe that in order to create change within our communities, companies, and households, we must first create change within ourselves. It’s a collective effort needed from all parties; no company, adult, or young adult can be left behind. The world needs us at our best!

Overall, has it been relatively smooth? If not, what were some of the struggles along the way?
The first year of building the company was from a hospital bed as my mother was diagnosed with terminal cancer. The biggest obstacle was creating this vision and company even when I was at my lowest and supporting my mother’s last days.

What is “success” or “successful” for you?
Personal success is 360* success, meaning you’ve cultivated fulfillment in 6 essential pillars that truly make up our life. Self-worth, Career, Health, Romance, Community, and Money.

If one of these pillars is down, it affects who we are and how show up. The 6 Pillars TO success is something I live by that I cultivate each day for betterment.

The biggest question to ask yourself with these 6 Pillars is what does success mean to you in each pillar and why? WHY is the big question.
