Welcome to The Modern Ummah Podcast! In this episode, I dive right into sharing how I better understand myself by asking myself some pretty deep questions from the 'Self-Reflection' cards made my 'We're Not Really Strangers'. I wanted to remind everyone that it is totally okay not to know everything about who you are or what you are comfortable with, self-love and understanding is a process. Here are some questions to ask yourself- "What can I be kinder towards myself for today?" "What's the most exciting improvement i've been seeing in myself recently?" "How would I describe my relationship with myself in one word?" P.S. Remember to be kind to yourself... talk to you next time! Miriam Sheikh
