Wait… did I just marry the wrong guy?!
About this podcast
Is it possible to be transformed, just by listening?
The aim of this podcast is to share a daily 'divine download' from Mamoon, one of the world's leading Muslim life coaches. After thousands of coaching sessions and years of listening to the deepest problems faced by Muslims and spiritual seekers of all faiths from across the world, Mamoon has coached people through everything… and has the stories to prove it:
From arranged marriages to unplanned divorces; from men who want multiple wives to women who just want one good man; from gentle parenting to bata slippers; from 'don't talk to boys' to 'why aren't you married yet'; from guilt-tripping mums to emotionally absent dads; from dealing with judgmental aunty-gees to the cute guy at work who would be perfect if he would just convert to Islam already!
The human ego finds endless, hilarious ways to keep our minds busily spinning. And the human spirit, enriched by connection with God, has the power to get through anything.
Day after day, these episodes share some of the most valuable psycho-spiritual tools and insights that have made the biggest difference for people. Designed to deepen your connection with Allah, turn you into the best version of yourself and as a result upgrade your love life - you'll learn how to elegantly deal with even the most complex relationship dynamics.
These daily 'mini coaching sessions' are filled with insight, laughter and sometimes crazy, outrageous opinions, stories and perspectives, on life, religion and love. The hope is that this approach might just gently wake us up from day dreaming past the most valuable moment in time:
This Moment.
