Bijal Shah is a distinguished Leadership & Mindset Coach. In addition to employing powerful coaching and mindset techniques to support leaders, she is a passionate advocate of the Human Design System. This profound self-discovery tool enables leaders to understand and leverage their natural traits and qualities, helping them achieve balance in both their personal and professional lives. By integrating the principles of coaching, mindset strategies and Human Design, Bijal empowers leaders to excel in their roles, elevate their teams and drive significant improvements in organisational effectiveness. She is a former headteacher specialising in school improvement and has worked in the UK and internationally. Whilst riding the waves of a successful career, she spent most of her time working and had no time or energy to spend with loved ones or to enjoy life’s pleasures. On her 40th birthday (during the pandemic), a friend asked her a question that would change the trajectory of her life forever… knowing that Bijal loves the summer months, her friend asked her, “how many more summers have you got left to live, and how do you want to spend them?” It was this question that led Bijal on a journey of self-discovery and transformation where she discovered the Human Design system, and it changed her life! She successfully used the power of the game changing Human Design system to create a life of alignment, authenticity and purpose, both in her personal and professional life.   As Bijal delved into the transformational world of Human Design, she discovered the blueprint of her true nature, strengths, weaknesses, gifts, potential, purpose, areas where she was prone to conditioning from others and the outside the world. She innately knew that the Human Design System had great potential to transform leadership, teams and organisational excellence. As Bijal began integrating the insights from her Human Design profile into her day-to-day leadership, she noticed significant enhancements in her productivity, decision-making, relationships, communication, and overall wellbeing. Additionally, she leveraged the Human Design System to evaluate her team's strengths and optimise their working methods, resulting in a more dynamic and cohesive team. For the first time, she began to truly appreciate the essence of her being. As she used the Human Design system to guide her towards a life of alignment, authenticity, purpose and abundance, she knew it was the ‘missing piece of the puzzle’ for leaders, teams, organisations and humanity! In Bijal’s opinion, Human Design is the ultimate self-discovery tool. Anyone can use the insights from their Human Design to improve their personal and professional life. Knowing your Human Design is like having your very own self-manual to help you navigate through your life with clarity and confidence. Bijal is the visionary behind Think Link Lead. Her mission is to enable as many leaders as possible to feel empowered, energised, and elevated in all aspects of their leadership and life through the power of coaching, mindset and a self-discovery tool called Human Design. She is an accredited and experienced performance coach, former headteacher, qualified teacher, host of the Mindset Lounge Show on in2beats Radio 106.5FM and the host of the Think Link Lead podcast.  Bijal Shah Executive Contributor Leadership & Mindset Coach | Human Design Specialist Executive Contributors at Brainz Magazine are handpicked and invited to contribute because of their knowledge and valuable insight within their area of expertise.

I came to this work the long way around. For most of my life, I was busy doing what looked right on the outside while quietly wondering why something still felt off. Sound familiar? That gap – between what looks fine and what actually feels fine – is exactly what led me here. And it's exactly what I help my clients investigate. I'm a Natural Nutrition Clinical Practitioner (NNCP), a Metabolic Balance Coach, and a certified Health and Life Skills Coach. I bring over 30 years of real-world experience to my practice – the kind that no classroom can fully teach – and a genuine curiosity about what makes each person's health story uniquely their own. My practice is called The Health Detective because that's exactly what I do. I don't hand you a meal plan and send you on your way. I ask questions. I look for patterns. I treat your symptoms as clues, not inconveniences – and I take your story seriously, even when other people haven't. I work mostly with women who are tired of being told everything looks fine when nothing feels fine. Women navigating hormonal changes, digestive chaos, exhaustion that sleep doesn't fix, and the particular frustration of doing everything right and still feeling off. If any of that sounds familiar – pull up a chair. I'd love to hear what's been going on.

I bring over 30 years of real-world experience to my practice – the kind that no classroom can fully teach – and a genuine curiosity about what makes each person's health story uniquely their own. My practice is called The Health Detective because that's exactly what I do. I don't hand you a meal plan and send you on your way. I ask questions. I look for patterns. I treat your symptoms as clues, not inconveniences – and I take your story seriously, even when other people haven't. I work mostly with women who are tired of being told everything looks fine when nothing feels fine. Women navigating hormonal changes, digestive chaos, exhaustion that sleep doesn't fix, and the particular frustration of doing everything right and still feeling off. If any of that sounds familiar – pull up a chair. I'd love to hear what's been going on.

David “Messiah” Stamps is a 56-year-old, LGBTQ+ icon, Black, Different-abled Veteran Artist w/ PTSD.   David’s a 2024 Office Hours Resident for Social and Cultural Impact at The Kennedy Center, due to the social impact of his award-winning (chosen as a finalist for AITAF Bridge Award by Pulitzer Prize winner, Paula Vogel) entitled,” The Black Bullet Dichotomy Aka The BBD.” It dramatically decreases the number of unarmed Black men shot and killed in America.   In the 80s, at the Golden Age of Hip Hop, at 13 years of age, David taught billions of people about Unconditional love on a radio segment on the Frankie Crocker show on WBLS called,” On the phone.”   Mr. Crouch, a dominant-culture teacher at David’s high school, was taking advantage of his classmates, a vulnerable minority population. Stamps used his global platform to have him removed. Two students, no longer being touched inappropriately, led his high school, Flint Northwestern, to back-to-back Boys State Basketball championships from 1983-85. Hence, the title, Messiah.   As an award-winning Writer/Producer of the BBD, a choreopoem, (Think “For Colored Girls by Ntozake Shange”, is the pilot project from his Anthology Series – THE OTHER SIDE – where Conscious Hip Hop meets The Twilight Zone. In association with his nonprofit, THE VETERAN ARTIST ADVOCACY PROJECT, he’s producing a STAGED READING of the screenplay version of the BBD, as a SECTION 8 CREATIVE RESIDENCY the first week of BLACK HISTORY MONTH, 2025. Exact date TBA.   Why?   In 2022, Paula Vogel chose the BBD as The Winner of the AITAF Bridge Award Competition but Adam Driver, Co-founder of AITAF, forced her to choose another play. This unfair decision cost David $10,000, a staged reading at The Public Theatre, and direction under Patricia McGregor, the Artistic Director of TNYTW.   David has created, from inception to completion, multiple high concept screenplays, plays, and TV episodes, and webisodes based on this Intellectual Property. Well-crafted and deeply ironic morality plays infused with his award-winning original poetry and song.   A new sub-genre he created, HIP HOP HORROR.   I’m the Artist-In-Residence, for Senator Leroy Comrie’s Veteran’s Advisory Board, in St. Albans, Queens.
