Episode 17: Conversations with a Licensed Therapist

We had a VERY special guest this episode, someone who has helped Shukri immensely in her fitness journey and is a constant inspiration… @bessynaidupt!! From cardio and weight lifting to busting some myths, like if what time we eat affects our weight, we discuss everything health and fitness. If you want to stay motivated, make sure you follow Bessy for credible information from a qualified PT. Enjoy!!!

In this episode, we are joined by our lovely friend Yossra as we discuss life in our 20s. We hope you enjoy, and share your thoughts please!

Habibah is back!! In this episode, we discuss why Habibah had a little break. We then reflect on the lessons we learnt from last episode with Salma - including life scripts and our inner critic. Happy listening and please, as usual, do share your thoughts with us

In this episode, therapist Salma enlightens us on how and why we think, feel and react the way we do. We discuss how we all write life transcripts that we continuously follow, belief systems we have that may not actually be true, how happiness shouldn’t be an end goal, our inner critic and much much more. I learnt SO much and can’t wait for you all to hear - it’s definitely an episode to return to.

This week, we are joined by special guest Rubbia Travels! We discuss everything from her journey to jilbaab and the responses she had to her growing career in the mental health service. We also delve into the passion behind her name: solo travel and all her exciting trips! Be sure to listen and let us know what you think.

In this episode we discuss where we are in relation to where we set out to be at the start of this year

This week, after talking about the football for a bit 👀, we delve into ‘The Book of Assistance’ and all the life lessons it teaches us. From the key foundation of certainty of imaan to practical steps to implement into our lives, we share some things that really resonated with us. It’s so important to keep growing and learning, but our knowledge of our own religion is too often neglected. We hope that after listening, you too will pick up the book and start changing your life for the better!!!

Co-wives? 👀 In this episode we discussed many different topics with @movingwithmodesty including the crazy questions they get asked about their married life. We also discussed some tips on dressing modestly, having a baby in lockdown, experiences as a new mum, advice to young Muslim women, how you know if someone is ‘the one’ and much more! Give it a listen and let us know what you think!

In this episode, we get deep while answering some questions from ‘The Game’ created by the Freshly Grounded podcast. From our relationship with Allah to discussing our characters and what can be improved, we were vulnerable and didn’t judge. Enjoy and as always, let us know your thoughts!

In this episode Habibah touches upon her experiences living in Palestine, where she talks about the beautiful and the ugly - the generosity and kind hearts of the Palestinian people, the vast beauty of the land, feelings when visiting Jerusalem and masjid Al-Aqsa for the first time, going through checkpoints, staying in a refugee camp and more.
