Why I'm Healing in Community
As some of you know, I'm divorced now and am choosing to heal in community instead of shame. During this journey, I'm striving to walk in shukr (sincere gratitude) and remain thankful for the countless blessings that my Merciful Creator has given me in my former soul companion.
During this time, I'm also reflecting on the lessons I've learned from my journey through love and heartbreak, which began when I was only 18 years old. So, I'm expanding my Choosing To Love Alone series to include this exclusive premium course: "I'm Divorced Now: Heartbreak and Healing."
Some have asked why I've chosen to openly share my journey regarding something so intimately private. The truth is, I've already walked the path of silence once before, and my emotional and spiritual health suffered mightily due to shame and social isolation from any meaningful support system. So, this time, I want to heal in a space that nourishes my emotional and spiritual health, bi'idhnillah. My prayer is that my story and lessons inspire and benefit other struggling souls, even if your personal trial is different from mine.
Thank you for taking this journey with me. I look forward to sharing more of my heart with you. May our Merciful Creator allow us to be soul-nourishing supports to each other on this path.
Your sister in faith and humanity,
Umm Zakiyyah
