Salaams/Peace,
Countless times I have been asked, “What made you stay with your husband after he began to practice polygyny?” To be truthfully honest I had to ask myself that same question in the past. The beauty of asking some personal and difficult questions meant that I was willing to harvest my truth.

Being married can have it's share of ups and downs and that can be long before the "honeymoon phase" is over. It's a totally different environment when you are now living with someone and now you see them in their element and they see you in yours, flaws and all. Don't get me wrong, marriage can be and should be blissful, however there are some that just seem to not work out. Why? Who is to blame when the marriage turns sour? When happily ever after turns into clash of the...

I know that the title of this blog may cause some discomfort to many however, we must address the serious issues that can plague a winning team and in this instance, by winning team, I mean family. I've seen many women get involved with and marry men who are just not the right fit for their brand. The women may not have been sure about it at first but as time moves forward, they realize that they are not a right fit. That is not where the issues lie though. They lie within the...

Have you ever thought about what your brand is as a co-wife? Being in polygyny can have its challenges and triumphs. One of the major challenges is our perception of who we are vs who we need to become as co-wives.

Living in a society where monogamy seems to be the state of the world, this topic may be a little off putting to some. Why do I say that? Well, because being part of a polygynous marriage has opened me as well as my family up to judgment and ill comments from those who don't understand or want to understand this form of marriage that is family focused and has been around longer than monogamy. We have had our share of negativity, however, there are many families who we have been...
