HELLO, I'M RAHILA.
NEUROPSYCHOLOGIST // VISIBILITYÂ STRATEGIST // TYPE A // TAURUS // CHAI LOVERÂ
FEATURED IN LEADERSHIP, MEDIA, AND INDUSTRY PLATFORMS:
ZEROBIE.
(That’s one level lower than a newbie)
A new country. No map. Just grit.
Â
Everyone said no one would hire me. So I hired myself. I got a gig profiling 2,000+ sales reps for a global FMCG giant.Â
Six months later, I’d bought my first car in cash and helped my family breathe again.
Then came the decision.
The consultancy I freelanced for was relocating. They offered me their business for more money than I’d ever seen. I had a choice: buy-out or quit.
LEAP.
$100 and a refusal to play small.
With only $100 I launched Narejo Human Resources. I used my own name so clients would recognize me. I didn’t know it then, but I was building something powerful —
AÂ PERSONAL BRANDÂ before it was a thing.Â
I WORKED HARD.
When success became unsustainable.
 I said yes to every project, agreed to impossible timelines, and charged less than I was worth.
My calendar was full. My body was breaking. A pinched nerve. Chronic pain. A ruptured blood vessel in my eye.Â
I was paying a heavy price for success.
“You’ll lose your vision.”Â
Â
THE DOCTOR SAID WHAT MY MOUTH WOULDN'T:Â
enough.Â
Â
That day drew my line in the sand. I’d built a career on brilliance, but also on burnout. And I knew I wasn’t alone. Every week, I met women like me — brilliant, overqualified, doing invisible work.
VISIBILITY SHIFT
When strategy replaced survival.
Working harder wasn’t the answer. Quitting wasn’t either. So I did something different.
I created a quarterly magazine, HR Toolkit, and mailed it to 500+ decision-makers. One copy landed on the desk of the Editor-in-Chief of the largest English-language newspaper. That birthed Workplace Sanity — a weekly career column read by over a million people.
Soon, my name was a brand. I charged more. Worked less. Spoke on industry stages. And I realized —
I hadn’t just raised my profile, I had cracked the code.
ICON
IS BORN
Â
The science behind the strategy.
As my visibility grew — from articles and columns to boardrooms and stages — I began to ask a deeper question: WHAT WAS THIS WORKING... and WHY?
I reverse-engineered my own accelerated rise through the lens of neuroscience, studying how the brain decides who it notices, trusts, and remembers.
What I uncovered became the ICON Method™ — a neuroscience-backed framework that reveals how visibility, influence, and memory truly work in the brain. ICON is the same system that helped me rise, and now helps other brilliant women do the same.
Be seen,
known,
chosen.
