I accepted the black and white challenge and chose this photo because it was one of my favorite trips ever... it was my first mum and daughters camp, we had an amazing time in the wilderness together! the girls still speak about it until this day⠀ ⠀ #womensupportingwomen #chaitalkpro #challengeaccepted
#womensupportingwomen Challenge accepted, thanks @thetravelinghijabista and @cakealicious_by_pinky. We often under estimate how supporting, encouraging, and sometime just being there for each other in any manner can make a big difference in another woman’s life. As women we have to be the best and biggest supporter of other women, because together there is nothing we can’t achieve. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼. Challenge is open to all women please share your black and white recent picture and show your support for each other and amazing women in your life! @nayyar.suleman @noshaba1234 @samiramaddox @brownieloverindallas @malihasuleman @nidasuleman @sanafaiq @surve_minal #womensupportingwomen #chaitalkpro #womenempoweringwomen #dontunderestimateyourself

The Big Question🤷🏻♀️I’ve received a couple of DM’s asking me “Should I travel to....?” Let me tell you, as much as I’d like to say yes, I’ve come to crossroads with Travel at this time. It’s such a bummer because next week is SPRING BREAK and most people have the week off! Anyone else feel the same way?? Below I’ve linked what the CDC recommends. . . Per the CDC, “recommendations on postponing or canceling travel. These are called travel notices and are based on assessment of the potential health risks involved with traveling to a certain area.” Swipe to the left to see how to check whether your travel destination is recommended or not.

Travel 101: Travel with your best friends, my best friends are my sisters. Traveling at times can be a hardship, and if you don’t have the right crew you may not be able to maximize your experience. Pictured above is my sissy, Heba. We both couldn’t sleep after Praying Fajr, our morning prayer, so we grabbed coffee and walked the Brooklyn Bridge. . . 📍Brooklyn Bridge. To get good pics on the Brooklyn Bridge, go for a walk after sunrise, it’s less crowded and refreshing. Take pics bottom up to decrease the number of people in your pics.

This year I worked extra hard on being my own boss, here are the 6 things that have helped: . 1. Depend on god and believe that with every Hardship there is an opportunity to grow. Inshallah “God Willing.” . 2. Start everything with Bismillah “in the name of god.” . 3. Focus on Family, spiritual friendships, and community. . 4. Know your “Why?” . 5. Renew you’re intent if you feel like your moving away from your initial intent. Remember that Your energy is felt and is contagious. . 6. Keep smiling . . 📍When in New York, you can get free tickets to go up the vessel, but make sure to book in advance. I love modern architecture, so this was a must visit for me. .

Wow, December 1st! We have taken this podcast almost 7 months running with a rollercoaster of emotions and setting the bar even higher for what we want to accomplish for 2020!

When I decided to name my business Knafest, I was hoping to create a link between the name and festive occasions. Granted, no reason is needed to eat Knafeh, it was always a must have treat when I was growing up during gatherings and celebrations. I feel fortunate that people have allowed me to make Knafeh for them in these special times. Recently, I was honored to make some of my creations for the @salamgirlpodcast one year anniversary! These women are creating a growing community of support and sisterhood like no other and I am so happy to know them!

Thank you for leading the discussion on how to build your brand while sticking to your core. We loved the interactive activity of recording a live podcast with the Chai Talk ladies as guest speakers.

☕️October’s Chai Talk was led by @mayaxkiwi . We got to hear about what inspired her to start her business without any business experience and got to try her watercolor kits. It was so relaxing painting parts of the world under the stars while chatting and drinking coffee with the ladies. My takeaway was to use moments of adversity as stepping stones to a new path. Hope to see y’all at the next Chai Talk. Invite and RSVP will be posted via my stories this weekend. Date will be 11/6. . ❤️A special thank you to @deemazalloum for being the best host.

[About last night] I got to meet and teach watercolor to some of the most intelligent, kind, and gorgeous women of the world! I couldn't put into words how special it was until now... As I'm typing this. It's not very often I get to share my experiences- as a woman of color- to people who understand. Don't get me wrong, so many people listen and empathize, but for a while now, I've strayed away from cultures that have experienced similar struggles with racism as I have. Last night, as I shared my journey as an entrepreneur, every single person deeply felt my life and it meant everything to me. I can not thank theses two ladies enough for helping me externalize my story. @thetravelinghijabista and @deemazalloum -I love you guys! #chaitalk #chaitalks #diywatercolorkits #watercolorworkshop #dallasworkshops #dallastalks #indiangirls #browngirlgang #chaitalkpro #indianwomanentrepreneurs #dallasartist #watercolorkits #teachingartist #globalartworks #planoevents #internationalwoman #painttheworld #minorityentrepreneurs @browngirlgang #dallassmallbusiness @browngirlmag
September’s Chai Talk was all about Organization Tips by Abir Bajour @a.b.organizing. I had the pleasure of working with her a couple of months ago to organize my closet and learned so much. Check out my highlights for before and after pics. Before going into the Tips, I wanted to Thank everyone who made this event possible: . @deemazalloum for Hosting this month’s Chai Talk. From meeting with venue managers to signing in guests, she did it all!! . @intermezzoplano Tommy For setting up the seating and turning the music off during our discussion. . Sima @sukkar_cookiestudio For the beautiful and tasty customized cookies! . Jennifer @planomagazine For recommending Cafe Intermezzo. . Now let’s dive in! ❤️Here are her top 5 tips for Organizing Any Space. . 1. Time: don’t start a project unless you have enough time to finish it. If you think you’ll finish a drawer in an hour, give yourself 2 hours. . 2. Take everything out and then categorize it. . 3. Find a friend or family member that will help you “let go”. Separate items into labels bins: keep/ donate/toss. . 4. Dissect your keep pile. . 5. Purchase organizational products that will maximize and compliment your space. . Hope you found this beneficial, and hope to see you at the next Chai Talk Women!! . Love y’all, .

Reflect: Find out what inspires you. What are you passionate about and what is your motive? . 2. Tell a story and add authentic humor. Stories stimulate the Brian and give the listener the opportunity to listen to what you have to say. . 3. Practice. practice. practice. galdewell reports that it takes 10,000 hours of practice to gain a skill. Use auditory and visual feedback to monitor your tone, rate, volume and body language. . 4.

Power pose/self-talk, and hydrate before presenting. . . . #chaitalkwomen #starbucksplanoicehouse #plano #travelparade #damestravel #girlywanderlust #wetravelgirls #shetravels #wetravelladies #pinktrotters #travelgirldiary #travelgirlsgo #girlsmeetglobe #ladieslovetotravel #travelingshoot #travelinspiration #halal #girlstravel #halaltravel #muslimwonderwomentravel #travel #travelblogger #hijab #hijabfashion #hosted #American #muslim #dallasblogger #chaitalkstx #chaitalkpro
I’ve gotten a couple of DM’s asking me “What is Chai Talk?” 🗣 Chai Talk is a network of international women from different backgrounds, and professions. We meet once a month and discuss a topic that is led by one of the group members via a discussion circle model with a small make and take activity. Topics focus on women self-improvement and empowerment. We want to improve conditions and social structures for women, and provide resources by developing a network of women that can help one another rise in our culturally diverse community. . ❤️Intent: 1. We all come different backgrounds and by sharing the knowledge and experience we have with each other we can empower each other to rise. 2. Professional networking opportunity. . . . . . . . #hijab #fashion #dallas #muslimtraveller #muslimtravelgirl #muslimtravelers #themodestymovement #muslimahboss #hijabista #modestfashion #chichijab #hijabstyleicon #hijabstyle_lookbook #hijabfab #hypemuslim #hijabchamber #hijbistagirls #modestblogger #muslimahfashion #photography #dallasphotoshoot #simplyxcovered #instadaily #hijabi #womenempowerment #muslimwomen #islam #muslimamerican #chaitalkwomen #chaitalkpro
