One book, launching in Farsi and English together.
Teal Owl Publishing is bringing Whispers of the Unconscious (زمزمه های ناخودآگاه) to readers in its original Farsi and in a brand-new English translation — both editions launching side by side on Kickstarter.
Ideas worth carrying across languages
Teal Owl Publishing has secured full English translation rights to Whispers of the Unconscious (زمزمه های ناخودآگاه) and is publishing it simultaneously in its original Farsi and in English — one Kickstarter campaign, two editions, launching together.
A two-part series
Two academic and self-growth books by Dr. Laleh Mehrad, each published in its original Farsi and in a new English translation. Whispers of the Unconscious (زمزمه های ناخودآگاه) launches first on Kickstarter, with Decoding the Unconscious (رمزگشایی ناخودآگاه) to follow.
Whispers of the Unconscious
زمزمه های ناخودآگاه
An accessible guide to the hidden mind: Dr. Laleh Mehrad shows how the unconscious quietly shapes our feelings, choices and relationships — and how learning to listen to it opens a path to growth. Published in its original Farsi and a new English translation, side by side.
Decoding the Unconscious
رمزگشایی ناخودآگاه
The second book in the series goes deeper into reading the messages of the unconscious mind. Coming after Whispers of the Unconscious (زمزمه های ناخودآگاه).
The author behind the books
The author of both books in the series.
Dr. Laleh Mehrad
دکتر لاله مهراد
Author of both books in the seriesDr. Laleh Mehrad, PsyD, C.Ht., holds a Doctor of Psychology and is a certified hypnotherapist. Through her writing, courses and a large online community, she helps everyday readers understand the quiet language of the unconscious mind — and use it to grow.
Meet the co-founders
Teal Owl Publishing is co-founded by two people bringing these books to readers in Farsi and English at once.
Ava Haghighi
Co-founder & CEOAva leads Teal Owl Publishing's legal work. Together with Bahar, she shares every other part of building the company — choosing books and partners, our Kickstarter launch, and bringing each title to readers in Farsi and English.
Bahar Erfanian
Co-founder & CTOBahar spent more than ten years building software, but the books she always came back to were about the mind and self-improvement. In conversations with her best friend, Ava, the two kept returning to the same gap: there are too few Farsi books, for adults or for children, about understanding the mind and growing from it. Dr. Laleh Mehrad had been a mentor to both of them for years, and that gap turned into an idea: publish her book themselves. Teal Owl Publishing grew from there, two women bringing a woman's voice to readers in Farsi and English, with a mission to keep giving voice to writers, especially women. Bahar leads the company's technology and shares everything else with Ava.
