Arda’s work on emotional mastery is truly transformative, and I’m grateful I was able to attend all the sessions. The combination of self-reflection, active sharing, and actionable insights made a real impact. It’s was so powerful to not only recognize our emotional patterns but also learn how to shift them in a way that serves our personal growth. Highly recommend anyone who is looking to grow in their self development journey.

Working with Arda has helped reenergize my focus on my career. I've always been a high achiever at work but I'd been feeling stuck and questioning my career choices. I love his approach which is focused on finding the internal strength to get through any challenge (getting "unstuck") and finding your purpose by focusing on your passion. I hadn't realized just how apathetic I'd become until we started working together - now when I have some downtime, instead of watching TV or being on social media, I find myself reading or writing in an effort to continue to improve. Highly recommended.

Finding Rise2Realize and Arda has been a blessing. Arda is an amazing individual who has tapped into many aspects of my life to enrich it. His passion and dedication to understanding his clients is unmatched. He comes with so much wisdom but also encourages the individual to go deep within themselves to make everlasting changes. From relationships to parenting to professional life will have positive changes if you work with Arda. I'm very lucky to have him as a coach!

My fiancé and I started seeing Arda a few months ago as a way to get past some issues before we get married. We had this “same fight” or so we called it. Arda helped us through his amazing method to work through this - it’s been like unlocking our childhood traumas together to uncover our most vulnerable places. We feel closer and stronger than we ever have and I can honestly say we almost never run into that “same fight” 95% percent of time - of course there is always room to grow. I am more open to letting him help me and he is more patient. I would see Arda forever if its possible. Highly recommend Arda, even on a personal level I have had many breakthroughs in our sessions. Thank you Arda 🙏🏽

I have been working with Arda on a weekly basis for almost 2 months. This is the first time I have ever been a part of a program/coaching/therapy.

When I first spoke with Arda, I found him to have a very caring, attentive, and guiding demeanor. He helps to address any immediate areas of concern as well as deep rooted issues. Through working with him, you will be able to rise in levels of consciousness and able to live a more engaging, fulfilling, and meaningful life.

Results will be dependent on the level of effort and prep that you put into each session. I think of my sessions with Arda and the associated costs as the price you pay for debts and baggage you have inherited. Decide for yourself when you will be ready to take steps to grow. The value is decided by each individual.

I encourage others to seek out Arda's help. We all have room for growth and improvement.

I've been working with Arda as my life coach, and it's been a deeply transformative experience. Arda has helped me in several key areas of my life.

A. Understanding Romantic Relationships: Before working with Arda, I struggled to grasp the dynamics of my romantic relationships. He's helped me identify the energy and flow within these relationships, allowing me to understand them on a deeper level. It's been eye-opening to see patterns I hadn't noticed before.

B. Increasing Self-Awareness: Arda has provided me with tools to become more self-aware. I've learned to recognize my behaviors, triggers, and reactions more clearly, and this self-awareness has had a positive impact on my life.

C. Facing Past Frustrations: I've had frustrations from my past that I hadn't fully dealt with. Arda has guided me through the process of facing these issues, helping me understand how they affect my current relationships. This has been a challenging but necessary step in my personal growth.

D. Seeing My Potential: Arda has an incredible ability to see the potential in others. He's helped me recognize my own capabilities and has encouraged me to pursue my life goals with confidence. His belief in my potential has been a powerful motivator.

E. Navigating Startup Dynamics: As someone involved in the startup world, I've faced numerous challenges. Arda has coached me through these difficulties, helping me see the bigger picture and approach my work with a long-term vision. His insights have been crucial in helping me navigate the complexities of startup life.

F. Encouragement on My Journey: One of the most meaningful aspects of working with Arda is his genuine encouragement. He's supported me in embarking on a journey that I believe I'm meant to be on, and his encouragement has been a constant source of strength.

He's helped me grow in ways I didn't anticipate, and I'm grateful for his guidance.

Working with and getting to know Arda has been such an awesome experience and great investment! He helped me identify what was preventing me from reaching a goal. He is empathetic, kind, and a wonderful listener. My mind would race and ruminate with the same thoughts and send me into a downward spiral of despair. With Arda's help, I was able to recognize these patterns and change my thought processes. I also am now more able to communicate my owns needs allowing me a better voice in all of my interpersonal relationships. I can't thank Arda enough for the tools he has taught me. I'm grateful to have met Arda on my journey of 'self-growth'.

Arda and the Rise to Realize group was paramount to my healing journey. My story is that I been recovering from burn out, stress and anxiety from pushing my mind and body so hard till I had a few mental breakdowns. Eminem’s song “till I collapse” use to be one of my favorite anthems I play to pump myself up to push harder and push through the pain. I grew up being taught that we are suppose to work hard and sacrifice for the team and that’s what I did until I had almost nothing left to give.

I decided I needed to make a change if I wanted to thrive again so I reached out to find a coach who can guide me along the way. I found Arda and listened to his Rise to Realize podcast and everything he said resonated with me so reached out to him and had a few sessions with him and also participated in the group workshops.

It was a life changing experience and his system worked for me. I now have gained another level of awareness and tools to help myself anytime I’m feeling overwhelmed or stressed. I can’t thank Arda and his team enough for helping me and I would highly recommend them to all my friends and family.
