Panic is not a process. Fear is not a filter. Are you ready for marriage? There's it just the loneliness

that's creeping in. You're worrying about your time clock for kids, but you're not really sure.

A woman who's ready for marriage is not just financially naive. Readiness for marriage is not a

feeling. It's a preparation. And preparation requires a process. Welcome to the mindfulness

Miss speaks podcast, a safe space to learn and grow into the best

version of yourself that you're always meant to be.

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

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

Now, I'm excited to share a ton of solutions to your problems

on love, relationships, life balance, reconnecting with the less dependent with the aile, getting back on track

and more. So grab a cup of coffee and close out those tabs. These next 20 to 30 minutes are all about

A woman who's ready for marriage is not just

financially naive. She's not walking into a, I don't know, covenant with no understanding what

financial partnership actually looks like. No clarity on what she wants or deserves in terms of

financial stability. She's just getting advice from her friends or maybe on TikTok or maybe on

one of those interviews where they

ask girls, how much matter do you want? What's your financial number? Like that's just absolute

trash. You need to know how to manage money. You need to know. So if you're doing this with a husband,

that doesn't become a point of contention between the two you because I know it's a thing, right?
