Salaam/Peace,

Whether you're monogamously married, married in polygyny, or single; life presents itself with many challenges. And with these challenges come and we always learn from them.

And this is especially true in polygyny; with this form of marriage, some may say there are even double the challenges and triumphs. 

In this video, Coaches Nyla, Nazir & Fatimah each share ONE thing they've learned in polygyny and the impact it has had in their lives.

Salaam/Peace,

Despite polygyny being an honorable form of marriage, many disagree with it; saying that it contributes to dysfunctional households, it's only beneficial to the husband, all of the like.

And some, oddly enough, prefer for a husband or wife to commit an immoral act - such as cheating - rather than get involved with polygyny. But they aren't anti-monogamy.

In this video, Coaches Nyla, Nazir, and Fatimah deep dive into how being "anti-polygyny" makes one, by default,...

Salaam/Peace,

A more than common occurrence in polygyny is choosing sides. Trying to pick whether the initial wife is the "victim" for her husband marrying another woman or if the incoming wife is a "homewrecker" for "intruding" in on a marriage, although her husband is practicing something that is permissible in Islam.

In this video, co-wives & Coaches Nyla and Fatimah have a discussion on pain in polygyny and the impact it has had in their lives.

In the matter of all relationships, there are plenty of myths behind them. Take polygyny for example. Many think of it "dysfunctional" or "unfair" for all parties involved, that it's just the "legal way" to cheat, and one of the most popular of them all is that it's a way for women to enter into a marriage and be a 'homewrecker'.

All in all, today's society deems it as dysfunctional. In this video Coaches Nyla, Nazir, and Fatimah give their insight on the misconceptions...

Some people say that one of the hardest and most rewarding jobs in one's life is that of a parent. What about being a "bonus parent"? For those who are not familiar, a bonus parent is another name for step parent. Being one who was a bonus/step daughter twice around as well as being a bonus mom twice around, I have a little experience from both sides of the fence.

My first step/bonus dad, whom I lovingly refer to as "Pop" or "Pop-Pop" entered my life when I was 2 years old. Even though he and...

Salaam/Peace,

One of the major challenges between wives in polygyny is the compare and compete game. There seems to be some unwritten code that states that because you are married to the same man you must be competitors. Competing and comparing can tend to bring out more insecurity than growth. Have you heard the saying, "Comparison is the thief of joy"? While that can be true, we can also use comparisons in an empowering way if we choose to.

I created a video that explains that in a lot more...

Salaams/Peace,

Healing from our past traumas is something we all must do in order to move forward to gain happiness and future success. Oftentimes we don't realize that if we wait to heal, we are actually prolonging the process; causing more pent up anger and possibly even rage. One of the most important things is especially the harmony that may come from our healing; inner peace is always priceless.

In this video, Coach Fatimah discovered that waiting to heal placed much "weight" on her...

Salaam/Peace,

We know that it is not always peaches and cream or sunshine and rainbows when it comes to building our best relationships. It take time, patience understanding among other things. What about when the going gets rough? What about the times where you just can't seem to agree or those instances that may set off certain triggers that can cause things to blow up in ways that can be hard to come back from?

We don't have to fight every battle that comes our way in our relationships....
