About Me
Hen’a Yadav (Space & Soul Designer)
Redefining the Art of Dreaming, One Space, One Soul at a Time
There’s a quiet revolution unfolding in the world of design, and Hen’a Yadav is leading it with grace, depth, and imagination.
A visionary Creative Director turned soul architect, Hen’a has spent the past two decades designing for some of the world’s most respected hospitality groups, including Marriott International and IHG Hotels & Resorts. Her work spans continents and cultures, uniting global design sensibilities with the human need for belonging.
From the outside, her story looks like one of seamless success, with award-winning spaces, a thriving career, and a reputation for excellence. Yet behind the achievements was a deeper calling. “I realised I was designing for the world’s eyes, not my own soul,” she reflects. “I wanted to create spaces that didn’t just impress. They needed to move people.”
That realisation marked a turning point. Instead of designing purely for luxury or aesthetics, Hen’a began designing for essence, for meaning, emotion, and alignment. She came to see that the architecture of a space and the architecture of the self share the same foundation: truth.
So she redesigned her approach to life and work.
She integrated her global design background with the study of human connection, earning her credentials as a transformational coach through JSCS Coaching School. This blend of artistry and psychology became the foundation of Hen’a.life. her identity studio dedicated to personal transformation through the lens of identity design.
“Design isn’t only about what we see,” she says. “It’s about what we sense. Every colour, texture, and detail carries energy. When you align that energy with intention, spaces become mirrors for the soul.”
Today, Hen’a guides individuals, leaders, and creative teams to design from within, whether they’re shaping a hotel, a brand, or a new phase of life. As Principal at Stickman Tribe, London, she continues to push the boundaries of hospitality design, leading with empathy, storytelling, and cultural authenticity.
Her philosophy draws deeply from her Buddhist practice, rooted in the belief that environments reflect our inner state. Through her coaching, workshops, and creative collaborations, Hen’a helps people reconnect with their own inner architecture, transforming disconnection into clarity, and pressure into purpose.
Hen’a’s journey is a reminder that true luxury isn’t found in things. It’s found in space: space to breathe, to feel, to create, and to come home to oneself.
Her mantra is simple, but transformative:
- Unmask. Redesign. Reignite.
- Step into the best version of yourself and design a life that feels like home.
- Because for Hen’a Yadav, design has never been just about buildings.
- It’s about building being.
Testimonials
Each story shared here is a reflection of transformation, a journey of clarity, alignment, and creative awakening inspired through dialogue and intentional design.
Mina
I deeply appreciated working with Hen'a, exploring my need for emotional connection and safety. I loved how she helped me connect with my core values, needs, and feelings. She truly assisted me in tuning into my inner voice, and her very loving and nurturing demeanour made me feel completely safe and heard. Hen'a helped me see that my fear of desertion and loneliness was deeply rooted in my own lack of self-worth.
Over the weeks we worked together, I learned to pause and check in with myself more often, to act more in line with my needs and values, and to improve my communication with those around me. I began to see myself clearly, appreciate what I saw, nurture it with kindness, and in doing so, I felt a sense of peace. The emotional connection and safety I had been craving all along were internal. Now I can confidently say, "No matter what, I will be okay," because I know what I need is right here within me.

Hen'a has a very calming and peaceful presence, and this quality of hers helped me fearlessly explore my inner self. She provided a safe space through her style of questioning
Maeva
When I began the sessions, I was in a state of confusion. I felt so stuck in my life and unsure of the next steps to take. I was overwhelmed by feelings of failure, despair, and deep sadness.
Right from the start, Hen'a's approach was benevolent, luminous, and reassuring, which put me completely at ease. I felt safe expressing all my emotions, from pain caused by traumatic experiences literally lodged in my throat to numerous episodes of crying. Her patience and soothing words helped me persevere through my tears.
Hen’a’s skilled approach, through her questions, helped me get to the roots of my traumas. These moments were many breakthroughs. From our very first session, I experienced these breakthroughs!
It must have been challenging for her to listen to my tangents, my streams of thoughts and feelings, but Hen'a always guided me back to the core issues of my suffering. From that point, through breakthroughs and realizations, I began to build a new, strong foundation on which my previous self-sabotaging beliefs would lose their grip on me. As Rome wasn't built in a day, it takes many sessions to reinforce this new foundation, and even if I later worry about new subjects, thanks to Hen’a’s outstanding wisdom, I would come to realise that all causes of suffering stem from the same core trauma, and that addressing this is essential for transformative change and achieving my dreams.
I am forever grateful to Hen'a for helping me discover the root cause of all my suffering. From this point, I am building a new, solid, authentic base. I truly value my life and who I am now
Kelli
During one of the hardest seasons of my life, navigating a painful separation and the uncertain journey of finding myself again, Henna stood beside me with unwavering kindness and wisdom.
Her words were not just comforting, but grounding. She never rushed me to “move on” or “get over it.” Instead, she listened, truly listened, and reminded me of my own strength when I couldn’t see it. Through every conversation, she offered perspective, hope, and patience, helping me find peace within the storm.
There were days when I felt lost, but her presence reminded me that I wasn’t walking alone. She gave her time, her heart, and her wisdom freely, and for that, I am endlessly grateful.
Thank you, Henna for being a steady light when everything else felt uncertain. You helped me rebuild not only my confidence, but my faith in myself.
Blessings and Love

Hen’a is an incredibly grounded, intuitive, and beautiful woman who listens and responds with insight and grace. In only knowing her a short while, I was instantly comfortable to share. I would absolutely recommend Hen’a as a coach. She will listen and guide you giving gorgeous energy. May she be there for you, as she has for me.
Celeste
Hen’a has a way to get me excited about me. Not in a self-centered way but rather, inciting that emotion there’s so much more to discover about myself than to wallow in the face of seeming rejection. Only with self curiosity, discovery and mastery, we lead an even more expansive colourful life.
Anthony W
I had the privilege of having a coaching session with Hen’a, and I can confidently say it was nothing short of transformational. From the very beginning, she created an environment that felt both safe and deeply insightful. Her ability to analyze me, not just my words but the underlying patterns and potential I hadn’t yet seen, was remarkable. The visualization exercise she guided me through was a turning point. It wasn’t just about seeing possibilities; it was about feeling them as if they were already within reach. The way she connected the dots between my experiences, skills, and aspirations made everything click in a way that left me both inspired and grounded. In our prior introductory session she was astonishingly patient with me, highlighting key areas for improvement. For the first time in three years, I feel genuinely relaxed, even as my conscious mind is racing with new ideas and clarity. If you’re looking for someone who can help you see yourself and your potential in a way you never have before, Hena is the person to go to. She is more than worthy of your time and attention.

What we Offer
Three steps. One transformation. Your return to yourself.
At Identity Studio, we work with the quietly overwhelmed, the outwardly successful, the deeply sensitive, and the fiercely creative. People who look put together but feel misaligned on the inside.

- You’ve tried ignoring the exhaustion.
- Now you’re ready for something real.
- Something human.
- Something sustainable.
- Identity Studio is where you begin again, with truth, design, and intention.
1 – Unmask
For the person who’s tired of holding it all together.
You’ve spent years performing, at work, in relationships, even in your creative expression.
But beneath the polished exterior, you feel:
- Disconnected from who you used to be
- Unsure of what you want next
- Drained from doing everything right but feeling nothing inside
- Afraid to slow down in case everything falls apart
Unmasking offers relief.
It’s the moment you stop pretending and start breathing.
Together, we uncover:
- The patterns you’ve outgrown
- The beliefs holding you back
- The truth you’ve been avoiding
- The desires you’ve been denying
This is the phase where heaviness lifts.
Where clarity begins.
Where you finally meet yourself again.

Truth into design.
You will:
- Rebuild your identity from the inside out

This is where your new story begins to take shape.
Gently. Deliberately. Beautifully.
3 · Reignite
For the person ready to feel alive again.

Your self-belief expands.
Your body exhales.
This phase is for you if you’re ready to:
