Some of us use our faith as a crutch and as a way to say I’m not doing this, I’m not earning this because of my faith. Is it really your faith? Or is it you and you’re hiding behind your faith so you don’t have to level up. 

When you have Tawakkul (Trust in God’s Plan) you operate with Yaqeen (certainty) 

The more you know God and the reason for your creation it’s a lot easier to move with that sense of certainty. To make more firm decisions. You operate knowing that no matter the outcome it’s what’s best for you.

During this episode Zubaidah and I tackle the conversation around Body positivity and how to use your voice, your business and/or your platform for Social Impact. I'm so excited for this season we have Jam packed episodes in the upcoming weeks!  

Zubaidah Abdul-Hakim is the CEO & Creative Director of Styled By Zubaidah, a Luxury Modest Clothing line for Plus Size Women. Zubaidah started Styled by Zubaidah in 2013 after realizing it was nearly impossible to find clothing that fit her body, personality and religious beliefs. 

There was a huge void in the fashion industry when it pertained to creating fashionable garments for the Plus Size modest woman. At the time no one catered to her specific needs and because of that Zubaidah made it her mission to create beautiful designs that the Modest Plus Size woman would enjoy wearing. 

I consider Styled By Zubaidah to be a Social Impact Biz. Social Impact is a  significant, positive change that addresses a pressing social challenge. People who are considered Plus Size, or Curvy or othered in some shape or form experience social and emotional effects and various forms of dicrimination, lower wages, lower quality of life and susceptible to depression and low self esteem.

We can learn so much from others about how to have a better faith connection with our creator through travel and seeing how other people connect to God.
