This is the Season 2 finale of the Barakah Blueprint.
I’m recording and releasing this episode on the same day — January 2nd, 2026.
2025 was a year of growth, opportunity, and unexpected difficulty. A year where the podcast grew beyond what I imagined, where I launched Itqan, and where I had conversations with people I once only watched from afar.
But it was also a year that taught me something essential:
When intention drifts, clarity quietly follows.
In this episode, I reflect on the lessons of the past year and why the most important discovery I made was the need to return — back to the Qur’an, back to intention, and back to alignment.
This episode isn’t about endings.
It’s about returning.
