Convert Corner
As-salamu alaykum, my name is Ally. I converted to Islam in December 2023. Ever since, I have been on the most amazing journey of my life. Alhamdulillah. My intention for this podcast is to create space for new converts, people feeling lost, and other girlies on their journey connecting to God. Community is everything, and I intend to build one through sharing our unique experiences chasing Allah. Ultimately, the world needs more muslima voices sharing their struggles, goals, and perspectives.
Let's stay connected :)
Here's where I hang out on Instagram, and feel free to DM me with topics you'd like to hear next:
