Episodes

  • In this thought-provoking podcast episode, I embark on a personal journey to unravel the multifaceted concept of "home." Is it a place, a feeling, or a state of being? Inspired by a poem I wrote entitled My Home: To Be Found.


    Tune in for a soulful exploration of what it means to feel at home, wherever our feet may land.


    The poem: https://medium.com/modern-women/my-home-to-be-found-5953518d9dad?sk=4d4f27f9100b67c2f35a1bea0f5264e7

  • (MasyaAllah! I recorded this episode without my mic—completely unplugged! It's like divine intervention, aligning with our discussion on trusting Allah's plan. We try, but God decides! Alhamdulillah, the message remains crystal clear, with a touch of background music and barking—imperfections that teach us humility and acceptance. Thank you for embracing this divine twist with us.)

We explore the wisdom behind accepting life's ups and downs with grace and humility, knowing that our trust in Allah's infinite wisdom leads us to contentment and tranquillity.


    So, come on this soul-stirring journey with us as we explore the profound solace in trusting Allah's plan, a journey that resonates with Muslims and seekers of truth alike.

  • This is for you authors! Join me as I share what I went through applying for the ISBN for my book, and what I learned about myself, upon reflection. I talk about the ISBN application a lot because, quite frankly, I was shocked that it was free in my country, Malaysia. A part of this conversation is to promote that aspect -- the fact that the National Library of Malaysia offers it for free makes the journey for self-publishing a lot easier. Publishing a book is already costly, so I was immensely grateful!


    I hope you learn a thing or two from my clumsy journey.


    Love,

    Yasmin

  • When we give ourselves the permission to say "I am not ok", we open doors to a world of opportunities, healing, and success. Here's my take on the importance of addressing our emotional pain.

  • I wouldn't call myself a shy kid. I've sung in school competitions, participated in drama competitions, was the speaker of my class for high school graduation, etc. But behind the extraversion, was someone who craved depth. Underneath the performance, was someone who craved to be seen. Join me as I talk about my book Is There Love Here? – and how writing helped me heal my self-expression wound.


    Love,

    Yasmin

  • Empathic or highly sensitive people often take on the emotions and needs of others. A form of self-neglect is when we disregard our well-being or needs for the well-being or needs of others. Let's discuss.
