Welcome to Dear Me

This reflection is about the lessons I’ve learned through love and loss. In 2022, a painful breakup seemed unbearable, but it was necessary for my growth and faith in Allah. In 2024, I lost my mother, and only then did I understand why that breakup had to happen—it prepared me for the strength I needed to endure her passing. 
 Through this, I learned that painful endings can be blessings. Love and loss are part of life, and people don’t belong to us. Ultimately, it’s my relationship with Allah that sustains me through everything.

As I was praying Tahajjud 2 nights ago, I realized that soon it will be the 15th of June, the Day of Arafah. I wanted to share an amazing dua and a reminder for those who are struggling with their deen. Please don’t hesitate to talk to Allah and express your feelings. I made this dua for myself and recorded it while sitting on my prayer mat so you can also listen to it and do the same. I felt it in my heart so it is not a pitch perfect episode! Wish you happy Arafah tomorrow and early Eid Mubarak !

While revisiting the events of my Hooyo’s passing, I can’t help but reflect on how much it affected me and how much I learned about sabr, something she proudly spoke about. 🥹💔 Something i will continue to carry with me whenever life gets tough. Something i’m here to share with you today 🥹❤️‍🩹🤲🏾

Today we are talking about how to live with no regrets. How important it is to hold yourself accountable and understand yourself. And sharing advices & stories that has elevated our lives.

Today we are speaking of importance unhealthy coping mechanisms that lead us to over give in relationships. We are gonna talk about why over giving is bad for you and how it causes unhealthy relationship dynamics. Relationships where there’s a clear inbalance. Where one person puts all the effort and the other is just taking giving nothing.

A story about my fears and limiting beliefs. I’m gonna tell you a personal story that could help you understand the harm of limiting beliefs. And how opinions of others can cause this. This experience could have stopped me from becoming who i’m today, but at the same time it was also what i needed to get out of my comfort zone.
