The low price is offered in order for a broader customer base and ensure most people can afford to get the support they need.

12. Why is this mentoring even offered?

Due to an influx of emails and messages from readers asking for advice and assistance in parenthood, marriage, and business, the need arose. There is also a shortage of wholesome support for Muslims in our community.

Sr. Zakeeya struggled for many years doing it all alone as a parent, wife, and entrepreneur. She wished for support to help her through the tough times, but back then, this type of mentoring was unheard of. Her life was enriched when she was coached by experienced mentors and therefore knows how beneficial this support can be for others.
