Get to Know Dahabe

Difficult Conversations

As we continue to introduce our co-hosts, join us for an introspective conversation with our co-host Dahabe as we explore her captivating life journey. Ever wondered how someone with a background in akhlaq teaching - the Islamic study of manners, spends their weekends? Spoiler alert: it involves teaching at Madrasa and going for hikes. Come along as we reminisce about her earliest and happiest memories.
Discover how moving from the city of Awaday to Kenya and then the US at the tender age of nine shaped Dahabe's life and understanding of different cultures. Listen as she opens up about the importance of finding an accessible support system and navigating expectations from oneself and family. We also delve into the world of self-worth, marriage, and success, touching on the emotional and psychological toll these can have on a person.
In this heartfelt episode, our co-host shares her wisdom on how to separate self-worth from the outcome of the marriage process and redefine what success really means. As we empower and validate our listeners, remember that taking a chance on yourself is essential because you matter and are loved. Share your thoughts and experiences with us in the comments section or on our Instagram page as we continue this enriching conversation.
