Islam and White Privilege with Zahra Aljabri of Practical Muslim

Welcome to Season 4! Summer 2020 I began a series highlighting Muslim women entrepreneurs. Our first guest is Zahra Aljabri, a spiritual coach, writer, and award winning entrepreneur. She has the gift of being able to shift people's perspectives and guide them out of a negative mindset into a positive one. Zahra's unique tools enable Muslims or people of faith to hear God speaking to them in loving tones.  Her coaching approach focuses on shifting her clients' mindset towards themselves and Allah (God) which leads them to a transformed outlook on life. She helps you to unlock your potential to pursue and succeed at all of your dreams. Zahra supports people of faith to practically apply their religious knowledge so that God's description of peace, love and support can be yours.  She is also a marriage and relationship coach with her husband with a company called Practical Muslim.  Zahra and her husband James have been married for 12 years and have four children together. They have lived in Minneapolis, NYC, Norway and most recently, LA.
