The birth date on my Facebook profile reflects the start of my coaching journey with my brand 'Manifesting Muslimah' and it's focus on keeping the Faith after facing abuse.

It reflected where I was in my personal journey in 2017 trying to unravel the disillusionment of abusive husband #2 and especially within the context of being a Convert Muslim at that time, dealing with the disconnect between the promise of the Faith teachings and the actual practice by the majority of 'born in to it' cultural Muslims.

It turned out that I was not alone as a Western convert Muslim woman struggling with holding onto sanity and Spirit in similar circumstances.

At the time of starting Manifesting Muslimah I was hyper-focused on what went wrong, based on the erroneous belief that if I understood then I wouldn't make the mistake again and with that understanding be able to help the 100s of Western Converts like myself who were finding themselves gaslit in their marriages and Faith communities.

In the end, it was a boulder that I no longer wanted to keep pushing up hill, though I still see the beauty & merit in the core instruction of Prophet Muhammed (pbuh)the truth for Islam (same as in Christianity with Jesus) is that cultural Patriachy and corrupt men refused to dignify women as instructed.

In 2019, upon completing my Coaching training in the Three Principles Paradigm (Sydney Banks) I found the 'Missing Link' to explain all the parts that made up my life experience - that all my confusion, fear & yearning was Thought created and that I could effortlessly put the burden down without the need to unpack it first.

And so I did!

I closed that Convert Muslimah chapter of my life from 2011 to 2020; closed Manifesting Muslimah and in June 202O opened Essential Awakening Mentoring

In the early days of Essential Awakening Mentoring inspired by how I experienced a reset in all my key relationships through the personal insights of embodying the Three Principles Paradigm I dabbled in being a "Relationships Reset Mentor" hoping to inspire other women to freshly experience difficult relationships through prioritizing their relationship with their own heartful wisdom

I was headed in the right direction but not fully on the right path by placing the focus on trying to 'fix' difficult relationships.

Happiness is not the result of fixing stuff!

In Feb 2021 at 2am I had my "Eureka" moment and AWAKEN the joy within framework was borne and Essential Awakening Mentoring now made complete sense

We are already joy incarnate and the key is to realise this truth and allow ourselves to be guided by our radiant heartful wisdom, and in so doing witness 'the problems' effortlessly evaporate.

We don't need to fix anything to be OK and when we are called to attend injustice in the current circumstances, our present moment wisdom will guide us to the best response.

Currently, on my coaching journey I have been getting all in my head about not yet mastering the marketing, building the audience and making the $.

I was wrestling with feelings of failure watching other online coaches cracking the code of getting 10k followers and apparently $10k months, while I struggled with finding the locked door, let alone the key

MONEY DOES NOT EQUAL SUCCESS!

I love my mission to inspire women over 40 to ditch regrets, be unapologetically authentic, age disgracefully and follow their inner joyful wisdom

I have two co-authored books, and been a guest speaker in numerous summits & podcasts

I am continuing to pursue research pathways to validate my AWAKEN the joy within framework inspired from my training in the Three Principles Paradigm of Sydney Banks

Thank you to everyone that has come along for this ride with me and living your best Crone Life
