The Power of Your Story

The most valuable asset with have is our personal stories. What is a story about your life you want to share?

Everyone has a story.  It is one of the most powerful assets you have and it is always with you.  Have you ever felt that your story wasn't worth sharing? Have you ever felt that its small or boring and nobody would care?  Amazing things begin happening when we share our personal story.  Something you've experienced might not seem like it at first, but it could be the key someone needs to unlock new understanding. 

Let's start simple, think back on your life, where is a place you have been that holds significant meaning for you?

Paying my respects to Muhammad Ali

This week I want to pay my respects to Muhammad Ali.  Muhammad Ali was actually the first Muslim I ever heard of when I was growing up.  He has been such an inspiration for me throughout my life.

This is my tribute to Ali through some of my favorite stories and read some inspiring quotes from his autobiography.  

Do you have a favorite Ali story or quote?  Please share if you do! 

Moving Past Fear of the Unknown

My grandma passed two weeks ago and I have been taking time off to be with family and celebrate my Grandma's life.  She was such a powerful force and lived life fully till she was ready to transition. I pray to see her in paradise one day.  

While I was with my family, I was feeling very inspired by our time together.  I recorded 4 videos over that time.  During this next month I plan to share those videos with you.  I have to say, I have really appreciated this journey we have been taking together and I greatly appreciate your love and support. 

Here is the first video, it is on moving past the fear of the unknown.  Please let me know what you think.
