Alhamdulillah, I’ve been blessed to reach 20. Entering a new decade feels both exciting and humbling, and as I look back I can reflect on so many lessons that have shaped me so far. These first 20 years have taught me so much about self-respect, the value of peace, intentional friendships, and most importantly, working on yourself for the sake of Allah. I know this is only the beginning and I can’t wait to see what wisdom my twenties will hold, inshaAllah. I pray to keep learning, growing, and sharing these reflections with you all along the way.

RAMADAN MUBARAK FRIENDS! The month of mercy and the season for renewal, reflection, and strengthening our connection with Allah is upon us again, Alhamdulillah. I am finally back after a long break and I return with a sincere reflection on my intentions for this Ramadan. After years of struggling with inconsistency and guilt during Ramadan, I am driven to make a long lasting change within myself by shifting my mindset to asking myself: who am I no longer willing to be? Ramadan is the best time to honestly self-reflect and rebuild ourselves, so let's not waste it.

This episode, I’m joined by my very first guest, Flavia — a content creator, brand owner and a Latina revert. Flavia opens up about her journey to finding Islam and embracing it wholeheartedly, even as she faced challenges and made sacrifices along the way. Through personal stories and heartfelt advice, Flavia shares the highs and lows of her journey—from being manipulated into marriage at a young age to finding her true naseeb, putting on the hijab, and embracing Islam while cherishing her Latina roots. Flavia’s journey is filled with lessons for all of us. Whether you’re a born Muslim or a revert, there’s so much wisdom and inspiration to take from her story. I pray her experiences touch your heart as they did mine.

The hijab is such an important and meaningful topic, so this episode marks the first of a two-part series! In it, I share my personal journey with hijab—the highs, the lows, and everything in between. I touch on many topics such as fixing your intentions, embracing modesty, stepping away from makeup, and the importance of surrounding yourself with good friends. Each of these reflections comes from a place of honesty and deep sincerity in my heart. I truly love sharing what I’ve learned with all of you! I pray that each listener can take something valuable from this episode.

Dua is truly your greatest tool in this life, and it’s a reminder of just how powerful raising your hands and calling upon Allah SWT can be. In this episode, I share one of the most life-changing experiences I’ve had through Dua. I focus on three key aspects: Tahajjud, Salah Al-Duha, and Dua itself as my experiences with all three have been so beautifully intertwined. Allah answers our prayers in ways beyond our comprehension, which is why Tawakul (trust) and Yaqeen (certainty) are essential parts of our faith.

In this episode, I share all which I have learned through my journey with Salah. I touch on various topics such as our relationship with Allah, the reality of death, dua, friendships and dhirk, which have all helped me understand the significance of Salah. Our deen consistently reminds us that Salah is the key to success, making it our duty as Muslims to truly grasp its importance.

This episode is a conversation and reflection about the real meaning of self-love and how our relationship with Allah SWT plays into it.

Welcome to the Our Journey Podcast! This episode I talk a bit about myself, a girl finding her way back to Allah SWT, and the story behind this podcast. I am so excited to start our journey together, Inshallah.
