For the last six months I've been busy writing my first book, set to be published in spring 2021. Here are some of the things that I learned in the process which I hope can help you if you're planning on writing a book as well.

There's no doubt about it; during the corona lockdown there was a lot of pressure to get the most out of the sudden free time. And with people on social media bragging about all the wonderful things they've managed to do, I on the other hand, has been less than productive. Here's a small collection of all the things I didn't do - can you relate to any of this? Please don't forget to leave this podcast a review before you leave.

Today is my birthday! And because of that I thought it would be fun to share with you all some of the biggest lessons I've learned so far in life and why they mean so much to me. I hope you enjoy listening in.

As we are nearing the end of a decade, instead of looking back thinking about all the things we want and still need, perhaps it is time to look at the things we can get rid of instead, to make space for new blessings.This New Year, I suggest that we all look at some of the toxic things that are taking up space in our lives in the hopes that we can reevaluate them and remove them from our lives.Don't forget that you can take part in the conversation by visiting the blog at www.conversationswithzahra.co.uk and leave a me a comment.

I apologise for the sound quality on this one, my dears!

The other day I was watching a video from a health coach where in it, she was sharing her opinion of what helps her maintain her youthful glow and clear skin. And somewhere through the video, it struck me just how much we keep preaching the same things over and over again to basically the same audience as well.Regardless of where you turn or who you ask advice from, the answers will usually always be the same; eat a healthy and balanced diet avoiding junk foods and too much sugar, prioritise quality sleep, make sure you manage your stress levels, move your body and move it daily and drink plenty of water.Have your say and leave a comment on the blog at www.conversationswithzahra.co.uk

So obviously we’ve only just entered the Ramadan and by default in the next month we as Muslims will be fasting for the majority of the day. This is not what I’m referring to however when I’m talking about not eating enough. What I am talking about is what happens when we hope that by restricting our calorie intake drastically, we can achieve a great weight loss result.So in short, I’ll just say this for those of you who are impatient and just want to get to the point – not eating enough food will not necessarily give you the weight loss results you’re after and in many cases, when it’s not done correctly and safely, it could have the opposite of the desired reaction which is it might restrict weight loss and slow down your metabolism.Take part in the conversation by commenting on the blog on www.conversationswithzahra.co.uk

Today’s episode is about what you can do to get the most out of the month of Ramadan or how you can potentially spend less time on things that don’t matter so you can focus on the things that do.So this year, I’ve decided to take a bit of a hiatus from Instagram. I would have loved to say social media in general but unfortunately, I think that would do more harm than good to my business. And since I don’t use Instagram for anything other than just for the fun of it, but it still tends to take up a lot of my time every day, I thought it would be a great place to start when it comes to taking a full break.Have your say in this conversation by leaving a comment on the blog at conversationswithzahra.co.uk

This is a topic I’ve had to learn to get comfortable talking about in the last five or so years because of the industry I’m in – when people come to see me to get personal training or help with their diets, many of them talk about lacking motivation or seeking my help because they feel motivated to do the work.And that’s all very nice and well except, many times, I believe that when people come in to see me they have a very unhealthy relationship with motivation in the first place. And to be honest, this goes for many other people as well, not just for the ones whom I work with.Take part in the conversation here: www.conversationswithzahra.co.uk

Today I want to talk to you about knowledge versus action – do you need more knowledge in your life or do you need to take more action?This is a question that I’ve been faced with a lot in my professional life as an entrepreneur and self-starter when it comes to running my own business as a one-woman band – having to wear different hats and often having to learn how to do things and learn things as and when they come.But I’ve also encountered it a lot as a health coach when I work with clients – in my work, how much new information am I actually giving my clients and how much is it just about helping them to apply what the already know so that they can reach their goals successfully.

Here I am – bringing up that dirty, four-letter word again; diet.It must be done. And because of the industry I’m in, I simply can’t avoid this subject – not now, not ever. But trust me, I wish I could. Because, I don’t know if you know this, but dieting, in its conventional sense, you know, the way that most of us know diets to be – restrictive, boring, unpleasant and so on – I have to deal with that on the other end whenever I speak to clients and just my general audience on social media.And let me tell you, it’s hard. It’s really hard dealing with people’s wrongfully ingrained understanding of what a diet is and what life, following a diet should be like.But hopefully, after today’s episode, you might be a little less confused about diets and dieting in general and with a little wish to a shooting star, maybe you’ll be able to enjoy altering your diet in whichever way you need to, in order to get healthy and fit and just Be Damn Happy In Your Body!Have an opinion on this subject? Share it over on the blog at www.conversationswithzahra.co.uk

Today’s conversation is all about the many health benefits you can reap from fasting during Ramadan – or of course just fasting in general if you’re not Muslim and just want to know how to potentially lead a healthier life.I’m going to take you through some of the things that happen to your body when you abstain from food for longer periods of time and hopefully by the end of today’s episode, you’ll feel a little bit better about your effort and struggles during the month of Ramadan.Join the conversation over on the blog at www.conversationswithzahra.co.uk

I am very familiar with the feeling of being overwhelmed and because of this, I have developed a few tactics that I use regularly to try to stay afloat in those situations where everything seems to be too much for me to handle. And today I want to share those with you! Have a listen and share your thoughts with me by leaving a comment on the blog over on on www.conversationswithzahra.co.uk - I look forward to hearing from you!

For those of you who might not know this, I didn’t start my health journey because I wanted to lose weight per se – I actually did it because I received a severe anxiety and depression diagnosis. And to avoid having to take pills for, potentially the rest of my life, I decided to look into more holistic approaches to combat my mental struggles.One of the things that continued to come up for me when I was doing my own research on the subject, was that exercise and a generally healthy diet and lifestyle had been proven to help with both anxiety and depression. And that is why I initially decided to embark on the journey of changing my lifestyle for an even better one.And while I was looking into doing that, I figured that I might as well try to lose weight at the same time if I could – it seemed like a very logical thing to do because chances were that it was going to happen naturally as a side effect anyway from leading a healthier life.In this episode I'm sharing with you some of the biggest mistakes I made at that time.Share your thoughts with me about this episode on conversationwithzahra.co.uk and don't forget to leave me a review of this podcast on iTunes.

If you listened in to my podcast last week, you’ll know that the last episode was all about how you can start to prepare your body for Ramadan, which at the time of recording this episode is just about 6 weeks away. And in that episode, I spoke a little about getting comfortable with being active during the hours when you fast. And today I want to talk a little more in depth about this subject because I know that a lot of people are very hesitant and worried about working out during the month of Ramadan. So if you’re interested in knowing how to exercise safely while you’re fasting, this episode was made for you!Do you have something to say about this subject or maybe you just want to give me some general feedback - hop on over to the blog on conversationswithzahra.co.uk and leave it there - I look forward to hearing from you!

Once again we’re at that time of year where many of us Muslims are looking at ways to prepare ourselves for the month of Ramadan.As I’m recording this episode there’s just over 6 weeks before Ramadan begins and I believe this is a great time to start making some small adjustments in your life that will greatly benefit your overall experience during those weeks of fasting.So in today's episode I’d like to share a couple of things with you that can help prepare your body for what’s to come.If you want to take part in the conversation or just have general feedback, please visit my blog on conversationswithzahra.co.uk - I look forward to hearing from you!
