Abz Ali is the first Emirati comedian and has an absolute talent for connection, laughter and openness.

Do you feel trapped in a 9-5 you dread, dreaming of escaping the rat race but can’t afford to quit your job? I've been there. It's a downward spiral of low self value and constant questioning of your life's purpose - you feel like your soul is being chipped away by the minute.

In this podcast, I'm going to walk you through a 6 step process that will change how you view your job to create a life you love—without even having to leave your current job. I’m going to share with you how I went from feeling unsatisfied and stuck in my job as a corporate lawyer, to finding & completely changing how I felt about my career. You don't need to feel stuck because of a job you don't love. Reframing how you think & feel about it is your key.

Today I am joined by a remarkable woman who is a living example of how we have the power to heal ourselves. She shares today how she got over her own pain story which prevented her from living her truth, to how she did everything doctors told her she would never be able to do.

Expect a deep conversation on how to heal yourself, tools such as emotional mapping, how to protect your time, how to stop manifesting illness, the role of vitamin G and getting to know who you are underneath your pain.

You, yes you, deserve more! You deserve an unlimited life where you are not trapped by your thoughts, past experiences or traumas. Today, Naila shares her experience of rock bottom, feeling trapped in a deep depression where she was questioning whether life was, worth it. Through her own inner strength & resilience, she reframed what was a string of events that could've defined her, into the woman you hear today. She shares how sky diving helped her face head on her inner dark thoughts and we also discuss having boundaries with social media as a necessary part to keep us connected to ourselves. 

I know you'll love everything about today's conversation - don't forget to share it with someone who will love it too!
