Guest: Khadija Kimchi. Known online as 'Khadija Kimchi'; Khadija is an ethnically Chinese, Canadian-born revert to Islam of 10 years. Her call to Islam began in 2011 as she describes her time up until that point as a life 'left lacking'. In the pen-ultimate year before her conversion she recalls the fruition of the innate questions which reside in all of us such as: What is the meaning of life? What is my higher purpose? (Because this isn't it!) Unaided and unfulfilled in the answer to these questions led her to reckless behaviour under the guise of having fun. Khadija's unwitting search for the truth took an unexpected turn when she witnessed a Muslim praying for the first time. As time passed, Khadija found herself nourished by the fundamental framework of Islam. Consequently, inspiring and admirable qualities such as empathy, understanding and being a beacon of support were given space to blossom. She now provides just that to other sisters through her online platform and community 'The Camellias Bloom Podcast'. Was she always a Muslim? About Khadija: Converted in 2011, that's 10 years ago From Toronto, Canada Currently lives in the Middle East She's a writer, personal trainer and social media influencer Her hobbies and interests include blogging, podcast, painting, crochet and community outreach Loves helping out the community, mainly sisters Khadija currently hosts her own podcast and is creating a community just for new Muslim sisters and convert sisters because it is a much-needed platform where we can have support from one another without judgements and with empathy.
