In this episode, I sit down with the incredible Medina Tenour Whiteman, a talented writer, poet, and singer, to chat about her fascinating life journey. We dive into how she uses spiritual practices like writing, singing, and meditation to navigate her identity and faith.

Medina shares the importance of stepping back from the hustle and bustle to gain perspective, exploring Sufi traditions and other calming practices like breathwork and meditation.

We also discuss her life in the stunning mountains of Andalusia, Southern Spain, and how its rich Muslim history and cultural significance add depth to her reflections on spirituality and creativity.
