On the first episode of my 2024 guest series, I am joined by my friend Afiya, who shares how her relationship with religion and spirituality has evolved from her childhood to now.

Everyone's journey to spirituality looks, manifests, and sounds different...and Afiya's is definitely one worth listening to.

Unlock the secrets of your strands with Dr. Afiya Mbilishaka as we weave through the fascinating world of Psychohairapy, a domain where the tendrils of hair care intertwine with the fibers of mental well-being. Dr. Afiya, a trailblazer in both the salon and the therapist's chair, reveals how a simple haircut can reveal much more than just our style preferences, and how salon professionals can play a pivotal role in a person's mental health journey. Our conversation peels back the layers of stigma surrounding therapy within the salon industry, while highlighting the unmistakable connections between stress, hair health, and our inner psyche.Feel the pulse of cultural identity through the strands atop our heads as we navigate the rich tapestry of hair's role in personal and cultural expression. Dr. Afiya guides us through the complex language of hair, dissecting how it is inextricably linked to our racial and cultural backgrounds, professions, and gender identities. We confront the pressures of beauty standards shaped by media and society, uncovering the distress - "hair stress," if you will - that these unrealistic norms can cause. This episode champions the unique narrative each client brings to the salon chair, underscoring the art of active listening and mutual understanding in enhancing the salon experience and, by extension, our personal journeys.Support the showFollow The Show On All Socials Using The Tag @skincareanarchy

Amy is joined by Dr. Afiya S. Zia to discuss her book Faith and Feminism in Pakistan: Religious Agency or Secular Autonomy and explore the achievements and challenges of Pakistani feminists.Dr. Afiya Zia is a feminist scholar who has taught Gender Studies at the University of Toronto, Canada, and Habib University in Pakistan. She is the author of three books, has authored over a dozen peer-reviewed essays in scholarly publications, and she's contributed chapters for over ten edited volumes, including an award-winning publication on human rights. She's currently a professor at Wesleyan University.

My name Ahmat DJIBRINE ALIFA. I am a director and songwriter. Founder of Afiya Films. I produce my music, have a singer perform it and direct the video. Afiya is the performer but is not the center of the project which is focused on the video production that accompanies the audio like a soundtrack. Of course the song is available on the platforms but the ultimate goal is to show my creative abilities in the image. To make myself known in this way in the hope of having more opportunities in entertainment.

Mag Dalé's singer-songwriter journey started six years ago, after being blessed with her son through adoption after 10 years of fertility struggles. A native New York and of Haitian descent, she was always passionate about music and singing, taking after her musical parents. She graduated from the LaGuardia High School of Music and Art in New York (the "FAME" school, previously known as High School of Performing Arts), where she focused on dramatic studies, though she was accepted into both the voice and drama programs. She has sung in choruses and small bands, performing in various esteemed venues, such as: Carnegie Hall in New York; the Gasteig Performing Arts Center and the Herkulessaal of the Residenz Palace, in Munich, Germany. But after the struggles she went through and blessings she received, her purpose became clear – to provide encouragement and motivation through her music to others facing adversity. With her spiritually influenced and inspirational brand of indie soul, she wants to give a musical testimony so others can take heart: "God has helped me so much throughout my life; has blessed me so much - whether it was getting through the heartache of infertility, the miracle of our adopted son, the relationships and people who guide me, overcoming so many painful areas in my life - my heart is overflowing with joy. I have to thank and praise Him, and share that news with others, through my songs". So don't give up! And hold onto faith and hope - it's a hope that does not disappoint.

What's going on everyone, in this week's episode I sit down with Afiya Letford but most people know her as Afiya The Savage. As some of you may see on Instagram with her high-intensity workouts, she is not only a fitness influencer but she is also a person in her community who personally trains and coaches people to help them find their inner savages. She takes us through growing up in NYC and the struggles that came with it, as well as creating a winner's mindset and mentality to never be stopped despite the obstacles. This episode is all about mindset, winning, grit, and building self-confidence. For all of my people that are on the journey to becoming 1% better, this is a must-listen episode. As always I want to thank you guys for tuning in, showing support, and showing love on every single episode. Don't forget to grow today!!

In this new 'Fifi After Dark,' our slightly-sauced-up host Afiya talks about the recent drama hitting the Adult-ish squad (because she's going to keep it as 100 with you as possible), that's been keeping production held up.

When the fear of failure is overwhelming, it can make you crack — and in this 'Fifi After Dark,' Fifi discusses reaching her limits. Tackling everything from derailed plans, podcast recordings, and personal relationships, the 'Adult-ish' host, Afiya, gets to the heart of feeling like a failure for recent short-comings (including this podcast) and her desire to turn things around. Listen on as she takes us through a recent getaway to the south (that also had its bit of drama) that allowed her time to think, reconnect, and even treat herself to a HUGE gift. So we implore you to dive right into this episode, where our host is probably as real as she can be, talking through being tired of feeling low and building herself right back up. It's quite the show.
