Suhbah Sisterhood

Reimagining life, work and leadership, rooted in Imaan and Mizaan

About Suhbah Sisterhood

Suhbah Sisterhood is for all Muslim women to gather, connect and share stories. Together, we explore themes of leadership, business and work - and what it means to live fully with Imaan and Mizaan.

It was born from a longing for the professional, personal and spiritual to co-exist in harmony - where the rhythms of our lives are not artificially separated.

Suhbah is the sacred companionship that comes from journeying together.

And we take this journey as a Sisterhood, remembering the words of the Prophet (SAW): "The believer is a mirror to the believer".

Through stories and companionship, Suhbah Sisterhood enables us to learn in new ways so that we may continue the legacy of Muslim women from the dawn of Islam.

Suhbah Leadership

Suhbah Circles

Virtual story circles for belonging and becoming

Suhbah Circles are at the centre of the Suhbah Sisterhood. Because stories reveal how Imaan and Mizaan is lived - in our homes, at work, through leadership. Stories enable a deeper knowing of struggle, loss, love and service. They teach what advice cannot. Suhbah Circles are intimate, facilitated and held in care. Nothing is recorded. In Suhbah Sisterhood, stories don't perform. They teach, heal and fortify.

Have you ever felt too Muslim in some places...

It was my first ever Monday meeting at my new job, straight out of university. I dressed with care that morning. Choosing the right "look" was a careful weighing of my truth and meeting expectations.

So, I chose for style. I chose for poise. I chose for a long-held dream finally made reality.

I opened the meeting room door, palm sticky against the door knob. Every eye turned to me. My stomach sunk deep into the new work shoes I had carefully chosen that morning.

So much for looking the part.
