Five years ago, I invested $5,000 in life coaching.
And I remember standing by the window, frozen.
My chest felt tight.
My brain was like, “Why am I doing this? What if I regret it? What if nothing changes?”
The funny part?
I knew the coach.
I trusted her.
But my heart still wasn’t ready.
Until I whispered one sentence to Allah:
“Ya Allah, I don’t know what I’ll gain from this…
but I’m investing with the intention of becoming someone who pleases You.
Guide me in whatever way is best.”
And wallahi…
that was the moment everything shifted.
Not the payment
the intention.
It became one of the best decisions of my life.
So if you’re feeling that same internal shakiness right now…
It doesn’t mean you’re not ready.
It means you’re human.
And sometimes the smallest sincere intention
opens the biggest doors of barakah.
Permit yourself to change only for Allah
