About The Guests

AYDA App – Aqsha Adam

Aqsha is the founder and CEO of AYDA, a personal health and spiritual wellness app built for Muslim women. She is also the Director of Programming at Shoot for Peace, and is deeply passionate about supporting Muslim communities. She works to create spaces where Muslim women can heal, grow, and thrive.

AYDA is more than just an app. It’s your path to wellbeing: spiritually, emotionally, and physically. When you feel out of sync with your body and energy, it affects every part of your life. From how you feel about yourself, your relationships, and even your connection with Allah. 

We designed AYDA to help you navigate your cycle with ease, strengthen your iman, and improve your well-being. No matter what time of the month it is.

AYDA helps you to understand your body so you can be the best version of yourself. Manage your energy, your mood, and your worship in a way that serves you, not just for this life, but for the Akhirah. Take care of yourself, live your purpose, and deepen your relationship with your Creator. 

AYDA is with you every step, to help you find balance, confidence, and thrive—every day of your cycle.

Deen Journeys – Iman Ahmednur & Fariaa Israr

Salaam! We’re Iman & Fariaa, founders of Deen Journeys.

At Deen Journeys, our mission is two fold – First, to create transformative experiences for Muslim women by fostering deeper connections with Allah and each other; and second, to empower Muslim women to cultivate self-awareness, confidence, and resilience, enabling them to embrace their identities, discover their inner strength, and step into their true power. 

Our vision is to build a global community where Muslim women can slow down, reflect, and reconnect with their faith while exploring the beauty of the world in order to live fulfilled, intentional lives aligned with the values of Islam.
