In the last episode, we were talking about in our healing journey, how to learn to communicate better, and specifically the way we really feel, how to tell people what we really feel. And that was something you guys went crazy over. Well, I want to tell you one other one that everyone is going crazy over, which is the one that I explain how you can communicate so other people will listen. People who normally you feel wouldn't,

like a spouse or parents, sometimes it's just the way we're delivering and if we had a slight

change, they would actually listen us. And imagine if they listen to you. How would your life

change for the better? Exactly. Let's do this. Hello, Samarayakam. Welcome back to the mindful Muslim-speaks podcast where we help you become the woman you've always wanted to be as a Muslim. We help you grow and thrive. Go from surviving to thriving because many of us, we're just hanging on by a thread. Let's keep a real.

We also have a really great book club coming up with a Yasmin Majahed's book, Reclaim Your Heart.
