About this episode
In this heartwarming and spiritually rich episode of Conversations with Joshua T. Berglan, Joshua reunites with his long-lost friend Zai Miztiq, a global speaker and author now based in Dubai. Their conversation is a beautiful tapestry of mutual respect, transcending religious boundaries to focus on the one truth that matters: we are "one soul made by one hand."Zai shares her inspiring journey from Singapore to becoming a voice for empowerment in the Middle East and Africa. She tackles difficult topics with grace, reframing the misunderstood concept of "Jihad" as the internal battle against one's own ego and describing the hijab as a "liberated choice" rather than a symbol of oppression. From the concept of "cultural disorder" to her vision for Africa's booming future and the importance of raising resilient children, Zai’s wisdom is a beacon of hope for a divided world.Connect with The World's MayorOfficial Website: The World's Mayor - Joshua T.
