I’m not sure why the audio is going in and out on this recording but I am sending it anyway. I will not be deterred :)

This is probably the most important episode I have ever done.

I’m sharing four life-changing habits/practices that you would miss out on if you left them. There’s no gimmick. It’s the real deal on how to turn your life and relationship with Allah around. I cannot wait to hear all of the beauty that comes into your lives and the ways Allah blesses you, fixes your heart, and turns your lives around.

Jazakum Allah khair for listening.

I look forward to sharing more.

Sincerely,

Sumayah

Sometimes I am struggling myself and I realized I have no one who actually listens to me.”

What happens when you are going through a challenging time and your closest people let you down? What does it mean when they don't show up for you? Can we acknowledge our personal limitations around being there for our people, and extend that compassion to them when it's our turn?

All of our timelines for understanding and growth differ and we can't rush or control our own timing or those of others. Instead of questioning whether we could have done more to get a message across, a different question would be whether our audience is ready to hear it.

Where's the line between playing the part and being an entire human being? Thoughts on navigating vulnerability, openness, reality and truth in the context of social media and marketing.

Allah (awj) is inviting you to come back to Him. He has not given up on you. He still wants you. He sees the good in you, even when you no longer see it in yourself. Even after a million mistakes. All you need to do is to turn to Him

You aren't unworthy, corrupt or so lost that you should just give up on yourself. You're not too far gone. If you have nothing else, hold on to the one last thing. It may be the thing that saves you.

Where's the line between trusting in Allah and tying your camel? How do you know when you've done enough? What if you miss out on a chance?

This one is for all of the kindhearted, naturally giving, generous people who have become afraid of being used or taken advantage of. You can set boundaries that protect you and allow you to decide when and how you help others. It doesn't make you withholding or selfish, it just makes you human.

This episode is about the fear of being too needy in relationships and how to manage our expectations and emotions.

A lie has a mother & father. Let's examine our role in creating a safe environment in our marriages, families and the community at large.
