🌿 The power of Niyyah — and how it fuels motivation through life’s hardest seasons
🌿 The 3 prophetic qualities every believer needs to stay consistent: patience, persistence, and perseverance
🌿 How to coach through the “all or nothing” mindset — so progress feels lighter, not heavier

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 by looking within with awareness and compassion, understanding your triggers and limiting beliefs, and making choices with Allah at the center. From building discipline without burnout to holding yourself accountable without guilt, this session reveals how Islam equips you to realign with your values, ask the right questions, and lead your life with clarity, growth, and presence.

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 healthier, more honest relationship with it.

Whether you’re a coach, a parent, a leader - or just someone sincerely trying to grow for the sake of Allah - this conversation is for you.

Let’s talk about the lies we tell ourselves… and the truth that sets us free.

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 bypassing and real inner strength.
• How to move through your own trials while holding space for others.
• And why some of the hardest moments you’ve faced might actually be your turning point

If you’ve ever felt like you had to “hold it all together” for everyone else… this one's for you.

It’s about remembering you’re not broken.

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 believers into extraordinary coaches who stand unshaken while the world crumbles around them.

Why most Muslim coaches fail: They build their practice on SHIFTING SAND instead of divine bedrock.

Without emotional resilience, you're just recycling secular self-help that FALLS APART when real tests arrive.

Remember, a broken believer cannot help heal a broken world.

Inside this podcast, you'll discover how the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ built emotional resilience in companions who faced IMPOSSIBLE odds stacked against them (and how you can apply the same principles TODAY).

The 3-step framework that prevents burnout while maintaining spiritual authenticity. Why defining success through Allah's lens completely transforms your coaching impact.

Whether you're guiding youth, counseling couples, or coaching professionals, these principles will revolutionize your ability to create LASTING CHANGE.

The real question is: Will you have the emotional resilience to rise above them and bring others with you…especially in a time like this?

Listen now and become the coach your community desperately needs during these critical times.

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 talking to people…

…or how to build a successful coaching practice that serves people and gives you the comfort of working from anywhere.

Even drawing up solutions to deal with hardships with resilience using the Islamic framework can take a toll on us, and become a challenge in itself.

These roadblocks can show up unannounced.

Listen to this podcast as Ustadha Razia Hamidi tackles on the topic of impostor syndrome and what you can do whenever it creeps up anytime in your coaching journey.

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 certainty of your dreams.

The cost of those fears will steer you away from leading yourself to growth and closeness with Allah (swt).

A lack of clear vision will breed fear and anxiety.

So, here’s what you can do:

✅ Have a vision conversation with yourself

Write down what you want to be and when your thoughts start striking fear in your heart, address your thoughts…

As if you're talking to someone else.

✅ Put down one vision…

And be clear about it. Doesn’t matter if you’re a mom, a new, or an experienced coach…

Just be specific about what you want.

Simply penning down “I want to be a coach” isn’t going to cut it.

And if you can, add a timeframe too so your mind can cut through the noise and have a clear understanding of what your vision looks like.

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 we can have…

…a steady flow of income to run things smoothly.

There are tons of ways you can get clients, but my favorite is a good ‘ol fashioned method: Networking.

Remember, your network is your net worth.

And to have a good network within the Muslim community, you need to know how to market yourself.

So, there’s a whole cycle we need to keep a bird’s eye view on:

Sales → Marketing → Operations

So, in this podcast, you'll get actionable tips from Ustadha Razia Hamidi on runing a successful coaching business like Adwam.

She shares the exact steps she took, the do’s and don’ts of doing a business, and why network is a crucial piece of it.

You'll also get to hear some success stories of Muslim women coaches who made their way out of the trenches they were stuck in.

So you can have a clear roadmap in front of you and know what it will take to be a successful spiritual life coach.
