Episodes
Have you ever felt like you’ve read all the self-help books, watched every video, and even started practicing coaching skills - but somehow, your conversations still don’t lead to real change?
Or maybe you’ve thought about becoming a coach…
…but something in you keeps saying: “What if I’m not cut out for this?”
In this episode, Ustadha Razia Hamidi talks about the missing piece most people never realize - the one thing ...
This episode is for you - especially if your heart has been heavy lately.
Because right now, so many of us are witnessing suffering we can’t unsee. And along with the heartbreak… comes the helplessness.
But what if I told you that even in this moment - especially in this moment - your presence matters deeply? That in the sight of Allah, you are not just seen… you are priceless?
In this podcast, I want to speak to the par...
Are your goals helping you grow — or just exhausting you?
In this episode, we dive deep into the spiritual psychology of goal-setting for Muslim coaches, parents, leaders, and anyone striving to live with purpose.
If you’ve ever set a goal that sounded amazing… but left you feeling drained, overwhelmed, or disconnected from Allah - this is your reminder to realign.
You’ll get to know:
🌿 How to help your clients (and your...
These are the highlights of a one-hour training for those who couldn’t catch the original experience.
In this one-hour training, Ustadha Razia Hamidi uncovers how Islam is the ultimate framework for personal development, showing that all the tools you need to change your habits, nurture your family, and strengthen your connection with Allah are already rooted in your Deen.
You’ll learn how to coach your nafs...
Ever feel like you're just pretending?
Like no matter how much you learn, achieve, or grow… deep down you’re waiting for someone to “find you out”?
That’s imposter syndrome and it shows up for so many of us, especially when we care deeply about what we’re doing.
In this episode, we unpack what imposter syndrome really is, why it shows up even when you are qualified, and how to start building a health...
You’ve been patient. You’ve pushed through. But deep down, you might be wondering — is it supposed to feel this heavy?
This episode is a real conversation about Sabr - not the “just wait and see” version.
The active, messy, uncomfortable kind that forces you to confront what's really going on inside.
We’re unpacking:
- Why Sabr isn’t is about showing up, even when it hurts.
- The difference between spiritual bypassin...
There's a heaviness weighing on all our hearts right now.
As we witness the unimaginable suffering of our Palestinian brothers and sisters, how do we remain steadfast when our hearts are breaking?
Right now, your ability to guide others is being tested like never before.
This session is more than just about emotional resilience.
It's about the exact Islamic framework that transforms ordinary ...
Every path is filled with landmines and it’s our job to be aware and walk over them unharmed.
Coaching is no different, in fact, the height of challenges that students face is something every coach faces in their beginner stages.
Whether it’s impostor syndrome planting false beliefs that we might not deserve a “successful” life…
…or fear of public speaking holding us back from confidently ta...
So many coaches struggle emotionally for weeks (if not months) to finally find a coaching style…
…that suits their aura and personality.
And it takes time, partly because many people fear having a clear vision (of who they want to be) just because it’s too big.
But that isn’t the problem, it’s “not having clarity about that vision”.
And that creates self-doubt and fear about the cer...
Coaching someone else, building a resilient attitude, and spiritually uplifting them is one thing…
And running a “thriving” coaching business is another.
While it’s crucial for us to polish our expertise as a spiritual and life coach…
It’s equally important to know the “what’s” and “how’s” of running a business.
And one of the first things we need is a consistent flow of clients so...
Shaytan is your sworn enemy and every time you think of doing something noble for a good cause…
He’ll be the first one to oppose, to plot against you, and try everything in his power to break you down.
And one way he can do this (already does actually) is fear, fear of the unknown, fear of making mistakes that might cost you your “image”.
See, mistakes are how you learn. Small slip-ups are ...
It takes a lot of energy (especially if you’re an introvert) to muster up the courage…
And build your network, but many focus on numbers rather than quality.
Look, I believe in this quote: “Your network is your net worth”…
But it’s not about the quantity, but the quality of people you have.
A network of 100 people who aren’t goal-oriented, lazy, and non-action takers…
…aren...
There’s no Dunya without Deen and no Deen without Dunya.
We must have a balance if we want to thrive and make the best of both worlds.
And spiritual life coaching isn’t just a home-based money-making business…
It’s a mission to create a movement of resilient believers and nurture a nation-builder’s mindset.
Listen, I could’ve made my job easier and provided you with tons of videos off the internet…
Every road has a bumpy ride every now and then.
It’s our job to learn from our mistakes and use them as stepping stones to grow.
And since I’ve been a spiritual life coach and mentored 100+ students, there’s a pattern of pitfalls every coach falls into.
And our goal isn’t just to help you just avoid it, but also to prepare you for the challenges yet to come.
Especially in the early stages of coaching,...
You’re a coach, you’ve got the tools, you’ve got the knowledge…
And you’ve got everything you need to start coaching your clients.
But the one crucial aspect of coaching is how well you understand them.
It’s non-negotiable. You’ve got to go beyond what they tell you.
That’s why we have a process of intake forms.
But that’s only to know the surface-level challenges your clie...
Marketing, if done the right way, can open doors of unimaginable opportunities.
It’s where you gain traction, network with others, get clients, and eventually impact more people.
But social media can feel like a lonely place sometimes.
You’re posting everyday, trying to keep the algorithm happy, but nothing seems to work.
Engagements are an all time low, and you might wonder if anyb...
Do you know why we have fears?
Because we believe something bad might happen that’s not in our control.
Even if we don’t understand why it exists in the first place…
…We still dread it…run from it.
And when it comes to life coaches…
Some fears can have a bad toll on ‘em.
Thoughts like…
“What if I dedicate my entire year to this craft and it doesn’t go anyw...
Look, difficult conversations happen whether you’re a coach or not.
You need to know how to make the conversation easier for yourself and the person you’re talking to.
The sooner you watch the replay and understand how to lead difficult conversations…
The better listener you’ll become when it comes to handling people…
…Whether it’s your parent, child, spouse, or client.
But...
Life’s challenges often stem from internal fears or external hurdles, like impostor syndrome convincing us we don’t deserve success, fear of public speaking silencing our confidence, or uncertainty about building a meaningful and flexible coaching practice.
Even trying to navigate hardships with resilience through an Islamic framework can feel overwhelming. These struggles test our faith, patience, and emot...
Sabr is one of the crucial aspects of a Coach.
It's a concept you’ll find yourself frequently drawing inspiration from…
Because it stems from the whole idea of Tawakkul in Allah (swt).
And when you’re helping people to set them on a path that doesn’t take Allah out of the equation…
You’re helping them prepare for Allah’s tests on the way.
And when these tests come knoc...
