The Mindful Muslim is an Inspirited Minds podcast that hosts raw, open, and honest conversations on various topics within the sphere of mental health, psychology, Islam and spirituality.

This month, Sivan spoke to Zainab Ahmed. Zainab is a volunteer with The Lantern Initiative, which is a Muslim mental health charity. She also works for How Are You Peterborough as a digital and communication specialist, where she regularly engages with the Muslim community to understand what they need from mental health services. The projects Zainab has been involved with include facilitating weekly Chai & Chat sessions, assisting at Connecting Muslim Mums sessions, delivering workshops and organising and hosting events. In her spare time, she enjoys reading, writing and going for walks.
