In this powerful and soul-stirring episode of The Finding Purpose Podcast, Adam sits down with Bakanay Abdusalamova—known as Baka—to explore the heart-wrenching and deeply faith-driven journey behind her debut book, Unanimous Decision.
Baka’s story is not hers alone—it is also the story of her husband, Magomed, whose devastating injury in a workplace accident set off a chain of emotional, spiritual, and legal battles that would test the foundation of their faith, love, and identity.
Unanimous Decision isn’t just a book—it’s a love letter to resilience. A tribute to the power of prayer, family, and staying grounded in faith when the world seems to unravel. In this episode, Baka shares how her life was transformed overnight, and how she made the conscious decision to carry both heartbreak and healing with grace. Through all of it—she chose to write, to reflect, and to share this testimony not just for herself, but for every woman standing quietly in the storm.
Joining the conversation is Arthur Blyakher, a close friend, family confidante, and the attorney who walked alongside Baka and Magomed through the legal complexities that followed the accident. Arthur offers important insight into the behind-the-scenes process and the layers of care, strategy, and emotion involved in navigating this traumatic chapter. He also served as a translator during the most painful and vulnerable moments, witnessing firsthand the strength of their bond and their faith.
This episode is about love in its rawest form. It’s about the unseen strength behind a public smile. It’s about a couple who faced unthinkable circumstances—and chose, together, to rise.
