The Aida Azlin Show

For the longest time, we were all told to multi-task, to hustle, to do, do, do until we forget to just... be. I realised that the biggest reason why I've been so overwhelmed and anxious is because I was either in "overthinking about the future" mode or "stuck in the past" mode - never just "being and living in the present" mode. Working on my mindfulness muscle has helped changed the quality of my life so much, so I'm sharing with you some of the things I've learned on how to honour the now. May it be of benefit, In Sha Allah!

Join me and my soulmate Saphia as we candidly talk about beauty and answer some of these (heart) questions: do we beautify our character as much as we beautify our looks? Have we "glow-ed up" in terms of our spirituality? Do we put in the same dedication and work on the beauty of our character? 

Sharing with you more meaningful questions which were asked to me, or I've asked, when meeting someone new as an alternative to the most FAQ ever. PS: what are some of your favourite non-conventional questions to ask someone you are meeting for the first time? Share with me!  

Time. It's something that we all want most, but use worst. In this episode, I shared some important truths about time that I've learned, and how realising it has been life-changing. If you are struggling with "not having enough time", procrastination and / or time-wasting, I hope this episode will be of benefit and gives you some things to think about.  

On this episode, I sat down with my most fav introvert, Karim, aka my husband, and spoke about "gentle confidence", embracing oneself, trusting one's intuition, and more. Karim is one of my biggest teachers in life, and I learned a number of important things in this conversation, and it is my hopes that you'll get to take away a few gems too. 

I'll be the first to admit that I've struggled with overthinking too much, especially in my 20s! But something changed when I learned about one of Allah SWT's 99 Names, and in this episode, I'll share with you the one thing I'll do when I find myself nearing the dangerous edge of "thinking too much". I hope it will be of benefit! 

Assalammualaikum everyone! It's been a while, and as I battled with excuses and procrastination, I suddenly got an epiphany and learned a valuable lesson. My hope for Season 3 is to be able to share with you more of my thought processes and things that are close to my heart. New episodes will drop Mondays and Thursdays, In Sha Allah! I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I do recording these episodes - try to see it as something you'd listen to as you sip your morning cuppa. <3

OMGGGGGGG I am beyond excited for the season finale of #theaidaazlinshow because it's with none other than my beloved teacher, Anse Dr Tamara Gray! I have so much love for her (and I know I'm not the only one, every Sister who has studied under her can vouch for her ginormous heart and contagious humour and of course, boundless wisdom!) and I'm so proud to have her as the special guest who will conclude Season 2! I pray this episode will be of benefit to you and you'd enjoy it just like how I did when speaking to Anse Tamara! 

Joining me this week is Noor Mastura - she is an advocator, Singaporean of the Year (woop woop!), and an all-round inspiring human being. I've seen how she has positively impacted society through her various works, one of which is her Instagram Platform called BBW - Being Bravely Woman. And brave is definitely a word that I would use to describe Noor as she highlights some important, but uncomfortable topics that we as a society always try to sweep under the rug.  I can't wait for you guys to listen in to Noor's inspiring journey, and learn! Let's start, Bismillah!

Joining me this week, is Ayesha Syahira or as she is more famously known as the 'Quran Tag Girl'. So many of you requested that I speak to her, and Ma Sha Allah, I learned so much during our conversation! We spoke about how her journey of falling in love with the Quran started, how she started as a student and now has become a teacher of the Quran, how she give her feelings its Haqq or its rights, how one particular event in her life changed everything for her and so much more! I can't wait for you guys to listen in to Ayesha's beautiful stories, let's start, Bismillah!
