Subhann Allah, this story changed my life and it had me totally changed my perspective and my reaction

and dealing with the opposite sex and love and relationships.

And I'm so grateful that I have this story because it has changed so many other things in my life related to this topic.

Hello, al-a-a-a-a-a-com. Thank you for joining us here at Mindful Muslim Speaks,

the place where we are empowering women to grow and thrive.

I'm so excited to be back with you guys and to do a podcast on love.

And this story, I'm not going to lie, this is one of my favorite stories.

I don't know. Some stories, when

maybe they're told by the right person or they have the right information, they just stick

with you. And this is a story that just honestly really did change my life. And I don't mean to

sound cliche and everything, but it really, really did. And having this information and

understanding kind of how the human mind works,

how love can work, and how crazy things can get so quickly, it really opened my eyes. And I have told

this story time and time again to so many groups of women that I've sat with because I do a lot of

kind of like work with the community community and they also have said like how

powerful the story was for them. So I said, listen, we're doing podcasts on love. I have to throw

this one in there. I think it'll give us some insights on some of the thoughts that have been

happening in our head, some of the things that have just been happening in our lives. It might

make a bit more sense if we understand how things kind of can

work when sometimes even work against us.

So I'm really excited to share this story today.

It is the story of Barzisa.
