Mentoring Client Reviews
Sally, United Arab Emirates
“I was a burnt out, anxious mom of two with a special needs son, and I needed help. Zakeeya listened empathetically to my concerns and directed me on some principles to apply in my daily life. After a few coaching sessions and applying her advice, alhamdulelah I feel much more relaxed yet productive, and I am finally enjoying motherhood. I didn’t think this was possible! Thank you Zakeeya and jazakAllahkhair.”

I wanted to take this opportunity to thank Zakeeya for the conversation we had. I felt very empowered and knowledgeable. The work she does is impeccable, and I commend her for the advice and patience she portrays when talking. The reminders about Islam and being close to Allah SWT are a breath of fresh air. I normally feel like we all need someone to talk to and listen to and always remind us of the important things in life that matter. Family, mental health and being close to Allah SWT.
