Hi, I’m Amna.
I am a 30-something Middle Eastern Muslim woman who wants to help you. I don’t know about you but, throughout my life, I’ve needed help on some life issues that I couldn’t ask my friends or family about. Either it was too embarrassing, too personal or just too uncomfortable to talk about. I wanted to find a place where I could ask my questions and get impartial advice anonymously. I tried Reddit: various life advice Reddit subs or relationship advice subs and my experience was that either (a) no one responded to me or (b) I was judged and made to feel bad about my decisions/question.
There were a few helpful people who did give me good advice and were actually really instrumental in turning my life around, but it wasn’t an experience I wanted to repeat. What I’ve started here is a place for you to ask that question and a place where you will not be judged and will be treated with kindness. I will do my best to give you life advice that will help guide you to a solution for your problem.
That’s what this blog is about in a nutshell! I want to make the world a little better – one question at a time! I will say I am totally unqualified: I cannot give any medical, religious or health advice. I am not a licensed therapist and I am not a religious scholar. I am just a regular girl, who has had a wide variety of experiences. I’ve been married for a few years, worked in a tough profession, lived in both the East and the West and, more likely than not, has been where you are now!
