In this episode of the Contribution Podcast I chat to Fatima Omar Khamissa.
For 21 years, Fatima Omar Khamissa was a victim of an abusive marriage which destroyed all the hopes and dreams she had for herself.
She took her five children and left that marriage and rebuilt her life from the ground up, with no emotional support and while receiving a government welfare cheque.
Today, Fatima is the CEO of Spiritual Biz Moms and MillsionStarsAcademy.com
The trauma of abuse, apartheid and violence was not able to break Fatima's spirit.
As an international speaker, master coach, and bestselling author of 5 books, Fatima shares her message to inspire, motivate, and lead.
Clients choose Fatima, she’s a real innovative business strategist and thought leader who creates custom plans for you that details practical strategies for overcoming obstacles and unlock your greatest abilities.
As a publisher, Fatima felt the need to showcase the positive, successful and happy voices in the media. Today, she is one of the few people who has successfully featured Muslim voices through bestselling publishing, radio and press release efforts.

In this special surprise episode of the Contribution podcast, I interview Br Zain Bhikha, the nasheed artist who needs no introduction. On hearing that he was coming to the UK to launch his first book, I wanted to touch base with my fellow South African whose melodies have been a constant in my children's lives and the lives of many others.
We talked about creativity, growing up under apartheid, the role of the youth in effecting change, the power of collaboration over competition and the challenges facing young Muslim creatives. He also revealed something about himself that not many people know! You'll have to listen to find out...
As a celebrated nasheed artist for over twenty years and more than a dozen albums to his name, Zain’s songs have graced homes throughout the world and touched the lives of others in profound ways. He has been on the Acclaimed Top Muslim 500 List for well over seven years and has been described as an influential global peace and unity ambassador.

In the wake of the murder of Stephon Clark, a Black Muslim man, my conversation with entrepreneur and motivational speaker, Ameenah Muhammad-Diggins, is a particularly poignant conversation about belonging, heritage and the struggles of African-American Muslims to find a place they can call 'home'.
