    FINDING YOUR SPACE: THE COURAGE TO BEGIN AGAIN

    What happens when you decide that your story isn’t finished at 35,but is only just beginning?

    In this conversation, I sit down with Naadira Chenia, SouthAfrican-born entrepreneur now living in Australia and founder of Olive TreeEvents. We explore her journey of reinvention, the challenges that have shapedher, finding her voice as a motivational speaker and the courage to create aspace where she can truly thrive.

    Sometimes finding your space means having the courage toleave behind what no longer fits and stepping into the person you are stillbecoming.

    Her story is a reminder that you are not behind, your journey isnot over and there is still so much ahead of you.

    THE MIDLIFE UPGRADE: WOMEN UNBECOMING


    🎙️ BEYOND THIS by Zaheerah Bham Ismail


    What if midlife isn’t a crisis, but an awakening?

    We spend years becoming who the world expects us to be — until we begin to losesight of who we truly are.

    Perhaps this season isn’t asking us to become more, do more or prove more. Perhaps it’sinviting us to unbecome. To release old identities, let go of expectations,reconnect with our fitrah and find our way back to ourselves — and to Allah.

    Sometimestransformation isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s about returning to who wewere always meant to be.

    Whatif this is your awakening?

    BEFORE & AFTER


    We shouldn’t need to lose something to finally understandwhat it was worth.


    🎙️ BEYOND THIS BY ZAHEERAH BHAM ISMAIL

    Season 2- Episode 33

    Sometimes it’s a diagnosis.

    Sometimes it’s a phone call.

    A loss.

    A goodbye.

    A relationship ending.

    A future suddenly looking completely different from the one we imagined.

    There are moments in life that quietly divide our storiesinto before and after.

    In this deeply reflective solo episode, Zaheerah speaksabout illness, grief, the losses nobody sees, supporting the people we love andwhat happens when watching someone else’s life change begins to change the waywe see our own.

    Not every painful experience needs to become a lesson.Sometimes faith doesn’t remove the ache. It gives us somewhere to take it.


    Link to full episode: https://youtu.be/lanLFhntNfQ

    Life’s fragile moments can also remind us to notice what isstill here.

    To love more openly.

    To forgive sooner.

    To appreciate ordinary days.

    And to stop waiting for loss to teach us the value of what we already have.

    Beyond This by Zaheerah Bham Ismail Season 2 | Episode 32 When faith becomes a reason to trust, who makes sure that trust is deserved? We trust the person. We trust the relationship. We trust the values we believe we share. But what happens when that trust influences where we place our life savings? In conversation with Mohamed Mayet, MD of Sentio Capital, we confront the difficult questions around Shariah-compliant investments, financial risk, transparency and accountability. What does Shariah compliance really tell us? When does trust begin to replace due diligence? And who is responsible when the money entrusted to others is at risk? This conversation is about more than money lost.


    It is about the trust we place in one another and the responsibility that comes with it.


    The Price of Trust.


    A conversation we cannot afford to avoid.


    Faith should guide our values not mask accountability

    Long before we knew how to pray for ourselves, someone was already whispering our names in du’a.

    A #mother.

    A #teacher.

    A #woman whose faith quietly shaped ours.


    In this deeply moving conversation with Appa Zaa and Qaanitah Hunter, we explorethe unseen legacy of women whose worship, sacrifice, patience and prayerscarried families and shaped generations.

The never-ending list! “I just need to get through this week…” But what if the days we’re trying so hard to get through are the very days that make up our lives? What are we postponing until things settle down? Who are we not really listening to? What moments are happening while our minds are already somewhere else? This isn’t about doing less. It’s about asking whether, in our rush to manage everything and get to the next thing, we are actually present for the life we worked so hard to build. December will come.

We expect our children to communicate well, regulate their emotions, apologise and take responsibility — but are we modelling those same behaviours ourselves? How do we keep children out of adult conflict? How do we navigate co-parenting and blended families with maturity and compassion? What are our children learning simply by watching us? Our children don’t only listen to what we teach them.They watch who we are. A powerful conversation about parenting with faith, intention and accountability — and the legacy we leave in the hearts of our children. 🎙️ Full Episode Available on You Tube, Spotify and Apple Podcast.

YourMove. “WHAT IF WHAT WE BUY COULD SAY SOMETHING ABOUT WHAT WE BELIEVE?” This week, I sit down with Amin Dada of YourMove for a conversation that goes far beyond sneakers.We talk about building challenger brands—not simply alternatives. Brands we can genuinely choose because we connect with them, believe in them and want them to become part of our lifestyle. We unpack ethical purchasing, conscious consumerism, entrepreneurship with purpose, and what it takes to stop waiting for someone else to build what our communities need and take the plunge ourselves. Supporting values-aligned businesses shouldn’t feel like settling for an alternative. They should be brands we are proud to choose. And perhaps one of the most powerful ways we can serve the Ummah is to build with excellence, compete with confidence and give people a real choice. 🎙️ Beyond This with Zaheerah Bham Ismail & Amin Dada.

    Beyond the Divorce, rebuilding a Life You Never Planned For. Season 2 - Episode 26 🎙️🎙️ Beyond This by Zaheerah Bham Ismail- What comes next starts here. Divorce is more than a legal process. It’s the loss of routines, relationships, dreams, identity, and sometimes even a sense of belonging. This week on Beyond This, Zaheerah sits down with psychologist Hanifa Ebrahim for an honest and compassionate conversation about the emotional realities of divorce—the loneliness, the isolation, the impact on families and the courage it takes to rebuild. Whether you’ve experienced divorce yourself, are supporting someone who has, or simply want to better understand one of life’s most challenging transitions, this conversation is one of empathy, healing and hope.

    WHO’S RAISING OUR CHILDREN- US, OR THE ALGORITHM?


    Because protecting our children today means understanding the world they are growing up in. We lock our doors to keep our children safe. But what about the digital doors we leave wide open? Zaheerah Bham Ismail chatted to Omar Al-Zabir, Co-Founder & CTO of KAHF, for an important conversation every parent needs to hear.

    We talk about parenting in the digital age, social media, addictive algorithms, harmful content, screen time and the online world our children are navigating—often without us fully understanding it. How much do we really know about what our children are consuming?

    Can parental controls replace parental presence? How do we raise children who can navigate technology without being controlled by it? This isn’t about fearing technology. It’s about waking up to it!

Full Video Link: This week, we go beyond the pregnancy announcement, the baby bump and the celebration of motherhood. We have a powerful conversation about maternal health, healthcare inequality, motherhood, faith, advocacy and the women whose pregnancies unfold in circumstances most of us cannot imagine. What happens when a mother has no access to safe healthcare? What happens when conflict, poverty or displacement puts both mother and baby at risk? Why are preventable situations still so prevalent ? A thought-provoking conversation about the value of a mother’s life—and why every pregnancy deserves safety, dignity and care. 🎙️ Beyond This with Zaheerah Bham Ismail Because every pregnancy is a story and every mother matters. #safepregnancy #womenhealth #womenwellness #womenpodcast #Pregnant

    🌸 BEYOND THIS with Zaheerah Bham Ismail This Women’s Month, I’m joined by Appa Zaa for a deeply meaningful conversation about one of the most important—and often least acknowledged—roles a woman can hold. Motherhood comes without a salary, a job description, annual leave or an award ceremony. Yet mothers give endlessly: their time, their prayers, their patience, their dreams and so much of themselves. We explore the unseen value of motherhood—the sacrifices nobody applauds, the emotional labour nobody sees and the legacy mothers create in ways that may only be understood years later. But this conversation also makes space for another reality: not every mother-child relationship is nurturing. Some women carry the pain of toxic, difficult or absent mothers. Some are healing from what they didn’t receive, while learning how to become the women they needed. Because honouring motherhood does not mean ignoring the complexities of it. A conversation about love, sacrifice, faith, gratitude, healing, forgiveness and the profound impact a mother—or the absence of one—can have on a woman’s life. 🎙️ The Value of a Mother — with Appa Zaa Because motherhood leaves a mark. Sometimes through what we received and sometimes through what we didn’t—and both stories deserve to be heard.

    Parenting doesn’t come with a manual… only moments that shape us, stretch us and teach us. In our latest episode of Beyond This, we unpack the real journey of parenting — the pressure to get it right, the balance between guidance and letting go and how raising children often becomes a journey of raising ourselves too. We also speak about the immeasurable value of a mother — her presence, sacrifices, emotional labour, quiet strength and the love that often holds an entire family together even when no one sees it. So many mothers pour endlessly from themselves while carrying worlds within them. This is an honest conversation about grace, growth, boundaries, connection and what it truly means to parent with intention in a fast-changing world. If you’re a parent, raising a child, loving one, or still healing the child within yourself — this conversation is for you.
