Thinking about living abroad in a place that’s affordable and aligned with your values?

Malaysia is worth considering. With an American income, many people find their cost of living significantly lower than in the US, while enjoying a country rich in Islamic values, a warm and welcoming community, and a safe environment for families. The access to diverse, high-quality halal food is an added blessing.

If you’re curious, the full video walks through what life in Malaysia can actually look like and whether it might be a good fit for you.

Is Malaysia the place you should move to in 2026? Now, if you're thinking about getting out of the country or making Hejra, this video didn't come to you by accident.

0:09.0

Now, if you don't know me already, my name is Mindful Misama. I help women get married and stay married. And I completely packed up my family from New York, moved to Malaysia for Hejra. Now, I did my research, but I want to tell you this. You could watch

0:22.5

so many videos like I did. I watched so many YouTube videos. And a lot of them were really helpful,

0:27.5

but most of them were missing critical things. I wish somebody told me, because it is one thing to

0:32.8

plan and then it's another thing to like actually get here. So I'm going to make sure you have

0:37.4

these because I looked all around and there was no video that went into the level of detail that I'm showing you. And a lot of people come here on the MM2H visa or the digital nomad visa. I didn't do any of those. So by the end of the video, I'll tell you the way I was able to stay here the longest and the best for our family. And by the way, on this channel, over the series that I'm going to do on Malaysia, we're going to cover and help you understand if you can actually afford here. Is it worth it? What's the food like? The daily cost, the daily living. What's it like to get an apartment? What about schooling? What about visas? What about work? What about spending money here?

1:12.6

I'm going to show you everything so you can decide if it's for you and have everything you need to make

1:18.2

the decision more than I had. So let's go. Welcome to the Mindfulness Speaks podcast, a safe space to

1:24.5

learn and grow into the best version of yourself that you're always meant to be.

1:28.0

I'm your host, mindful Muslim mom of five, big sister to the community and a licensed

1:32.0

educator with 25 plus years and supporting tens of thousands of Muslim women worldwide.

1:37.1

Now I'm excited to share a ton of solutions to your problems on love, relationships, life

1:41.3

balance, reconnecting with a less dependent with Aile, getting back on track,

1:44.9

and more.

1:45.5

So grab a cup of coffee and close out those tabs.

1:48.1

These next 20 to 30 minutes are all about you.

1:50.7

Let's get started.

1:52.7

Hey, I just want to share something pretty personal before we continue.

1:58.2

I used to be the kind of person that would start Ramadan and really excited. Then I would

2:02.5

slowly taper off and then flatline somewhere in the middle and then like try to get it back up

2:07.7

before Ramadan was over. And then I have all the guilt after because I lost the biggest

2:13.1

opportunity of the entire year to change my life with a less pen and that no longer happens that was a long time ago
