This week on the Inspiring Young Minds podcast, we’ll explore what change looks like, how it might feel, and steps we can take to realign with our new surroundings.

“There lies within the body a piece of flesh. If it is sound, the whole body is sound; and if it is corrupted, the whole body is corrupted. Verily this piece is the heart.”

Welcome back to the Inspiring Young Minds Podcast. congratulations to all the 2020 graduates! I couldn’t talk about everything high school taught me, but here’s a few things i’ve gathered lol. if you could relate or gained anything from today’s episode make sure to let me know !

This is a reuploded episode, the second episode I ever did on this podcast. Despite my critiques about it, most of you seemed to really appreciate. So hopefully you enjoy this episode. Do you find yourself struggling to find contentment in your everyday life? I don’t have all the answers, but speaking from my own experience, i decided to give you guys 5 introspective ways to look into your life. i hope this can help you continue to grow into the happy person you always wanted to be!

Nadirah P is a stand up comedian whose instagram caught my eye when I came across one of her highlights on healing. In today’s episode, I discussed two of her questions that raised a lot of personal questions for me. I struggled with coming up with answers, as you guys can hear, but i definitely needed this challenge. I’m still learning how to edit audio and record myself and get comfortable so please bare with me as i develop more in my podcasting journey. I’m completely fine with sounding like a fool or nervous right now if it means that it’ll all be worth it moving forward! I challenge you all to think about Nadirah’s questions too. tell me what you think of today’s episode!

I know quarantine has changed all of our lives. Hopefully, you’re doing your best to take care of your physical, emotional and mental health during these times! * Disclaimer: I understand my issues are not the issues of the world and are trivial in comparison to the larger problem, however, i know many of you can relate to this complete switch in our lifestyles.* What have you learned from being quarantined? Has creating/ being productive been hard for you? Let me know!

Ramadan Mubarak! i decided to review the “My Kufi” children‘s book by Adil Ismaaeel that I purchased for my younger brothers. This book was definitely worth it! Adil Ismaaeel, the author of this book, explores identity, faith, and confidence by following the situation of a young boy named Jaysh. If you’ve read it, what do you think? Follow Adil Ismaaeel on Instagram @adil_ismaaeel. You can follow the podcast @iympodcast and my personal page @tima.aa
