Welcome to my page

This website is a publication of my thoughts, life events, experience and personal hobbies and interests. This website is intended to be a bit of fun and sharing of some thoughts feelings and knowledge I have accumulated along the way.

The topics I will cover include the follow:

Art & Culture

Though I’m not massively in to art and culture, every so often I’ll come across something that really appeals to me which I would like to share with my audience

Biographic

This section will be posts all about my person experience. It will be more of a diary entry, talking about things that has had an affect on my life in general.

Health

Over the years I have learnt a lot about my body and health in general. I am not very conventional in my attitude towards health but I’m also not in to anything in particular like homeopathy. I believe our bodies are more than capable of healing us, we just get in the way with our poor diet and lifestyle.

Ideas

Here I’ll be sharing random ideas I have here and there. I am very imaginative and some of the things I come up with can be a little unconventional but I feel it’s always good to think outside the box.

Religion & Philosophy

Growing up muslim has given me certain values and has shaped my behaviour growing up. I love researching religion and philosophy especially how it affects the choices people make in their lives.

Theories

This is a collection of theories I have collected during my career. They are mainly related to business and motivation.

Wealth

I will be sharing the things I do in regards to money, investing and the various ways other people have made money.

Work Work Work

I am currently studying digital marketing in a effort to enter the marketing industry. I already have a little experience of SEO, social media marketing and paid digital marketing as well as website development. This course should develop my existing skills to a more professional standard enabling me to gain further experience.

Retail industry has given me great experience of working in a fast paced and demanding environment. I have learnt a lot about how to deal with difficult and demanding customers, staffing issues, adhering to legislations. As calm as my temperament was prior to entering the retail industry, I have adapted even further so I stay calm even in the most stressful of days.

I have also learnt a lot working in this industry including, analysing sales figures, effectively managing stock by maximising sales and minimising waste and shrink, merchandising developing staff to improve performance. The skills I have picked up are invaluable and will come in handy in whatever industry I choose to work in in the future.

I was previously working in admin for a government organisation where I spend 12 years of my life. Working in admin and management roles within the finance and HR sector has enabled me to learn a great deal about how businesses operate. Gaining knowledge of how to effectively manage an organisations workforce and finances has strengthened my ability to work effectively.

A bit of history

Being the eldest of 6, I was born in a remote village in Bangladesh. We later moved to the UK where we have been living still today.

I can’t claim I had a difficult upbringing but being raised on benefits meant luxuries were few and far between but we never struggled for food as our parents prioritised food over everything else. This was much to our disappointment where we wanted nice trainers and new clothes instead of hand me downs and cheap shoes.

Being mixed race didn’t have much of an affect on my life apart from not really fitting in to a particular box. Being racially ambiguous, people didn’t know from looking at us what ethnic background we were. So I got a lot of people from various ethnic backgrounds talking to me in their language before they realised I didn’t have a clue what they’re saying from the blank look in my face.

I have many interests including religion and philosophy, money matters, motivation and law of attraction. I am a busy mother with 3 girls from 2 marriages, currently with my second husband, Daniel who is also my best friend.

Approaching 40 has made me reflect on what I have done in my life so far and try and figure out what I want to be doing with my life and what makes me happy. Currently working, doing something I’m not that passionate about made me start this site where I can express myself, thoughts, feelings and what I’m doing with my free time.

I am also on a mission to encourage people, mainly Muslims  to challenge their irrational limitations placed on them by their beliefs and their community.

I hope you enjoy reading my posts and don’t forget to leave a comment.
