FULFILLMENT comes from a series of successes! Yes or No?

If Success is a series of failures then FULFILLMENT is a series of successes!

Taniya Hussain

I know I am quoting myself but what I am saying very few folks in my world are actually voicing.

First of all success is usually understood as making loads of money or having loads of followers, or having it all, whatever that means.

Rarely it is understood as having peace and balance in your life.

Rarely it is understood as feeling that you are doing what you feel you have been born to do.

Rarely it is understood as having this immense experience of being deeply fulfilled with every fibre of your being, that you are fulfilling your legacy.

Now I am not saying there will be no doubts along the way whilst you are working on whatever you are working on.

However what I want to dwell on is the labour of love you feel when and whilst and during the time you are working on the creative project.

I know many heart-centred professionals, heart-centred entrepreneurs, heart-centred entrepreneurs and heart-centred creatives follow me.

You understand and Interstand and overstand what I am saying.

You have always listened to the calling.

You have listened to the still small voice of God

I know many who have been observing my life, and you don’t really know me, it kooks like I have it all for those looking into my life from the outside.

I want to tell you this.

Very few have it all.

FULFILLMENT is not about having it all.

Freedom is not about having freedom to do whatever you want whenever you want it without regard to the consequences.

When you have the freedom to do something or be someone, you can take someone’s freedom from them or even from yourself.

Freedom can come at a cost.

Sometimes the cost is that you have to think for yourself.

When you are told what to think, what to do, that’s easy but suddenly when you can do whatever you want to do, it’s not so easy.

Our minds freeze, we don’t know what to do.

That’s why before the Children of Israel found the land of Israel they wandered the wilderness for 40 years.

They found freedom difficult.

Their souls had to be trained through trails and tribulations

That’s why doing what your soul is calling to do, is so pleasurable.

That is true FREEDOM!

But how do you understand, interstand and overstand what your soul is calling you to do?

Firstly it is by meditation and this doesn’t need to be religious.

It can just be by sitting in silence and focusing on the breath coming in and out. Then noticing what thoughts and feelings come up. Then noting down what you felt, heard, saw, tasted and smelt.

Secondly to be able to sit in silence, it is important to abstain from digital devices on a regular basis. In other words to be offline once a day or once a week. Being online is not good for us on so many levels.

Thirdly it is to be grateful, truly grateful for all that you have, your family and friends, the material comforts and what you don’t have. Recent experiences have confirmed to me that sometimes some opportunities were not just for me. I have had some lucky escapes in my business and in my life.

Fourthly it is to listen to the intuitive hitsy that emerged during the meditations. When you sit in silence for one minute every day for six weeks, you start connecting with your gut, the thoughts and feelings stored in your stomach. The soul is very connected to intuition and most of us are so much in our minds and divorced from our bodies and the intuitive process.

Filthly is to seek counsel with a human soul about the intuitive hits. This could be a coach, a trusted friend, a trusted family member or a therapist. To consult another human being before you take action on what your gut is saying is very important. You see sometimes what we think is our intuition is our ego and vice versa.

Sixthly after you have sought the counsel or had the consultation with a human being you trust, is to act in alignment with your soul, that still small voice. Sometimes what you are being called to do may sound crazy, scary, exciting, impossible.

It is when you act that the TRANSFORMATION occurs.

It feels MIRACULOUS but it isn’t really.

It feels MAGICAL but it isn’t really.

Seventhly it is then when you start living the dream. You feel like you are living your soul’s calling. It is only then you feel like you are living a fulfilled life

That is FULFILlMENT

That is why the method I use with my paid clients that facilitates them to live a fulfilled life is called The M.A.G.I.C.A.L method.

M means Medication

A means Abstaining

G means Gratitude

I means Intuition

C means Consulting

A means Aligned action

L means living a fulfilled life.

You can try this method all by yourself or you can learn it with me.

It is up to you.

These articles teach you the WHAT of my method that can prevent burnout.

Us high achievers and high performers and heartcentred entrepreneurs, creatives, leaders and professionals are usually in drive mode.

Meditation and being offline more helps us to slow down, relax and connect us to ourselves, our friends and families and our bodies. This leads us to be in soothe mode.

Gratitude practices helps us stop chasing after personal development goals and just helps us to be. Sometimes it is important to notice and be thankful for how far we have come rather than focusing on the destination we want to get to.

How many of us are personal development addicts constantly working on ourselves, chasing that goal?

Sitting in silence every day for six weeks for one minute is a really simple exercise. It is a self care practice that is not a luxury but essential for peace and balance.

Intuition is something all of us have but many of us are not attuned to our inbuilt intuition.

We mistake egoistic thoughts and feelings with intuition.

So that is why consulting a trusted human being really helps with discerning what is ego and what is the soul calling.

That is why when you work with me, you learn the HOW of my method. You don’t learn by yourself but WITH me live, in real time on Zoom or in person.

Because most of us need an experienced guide, a trusted mentor’s hand to hold when you are taking the aligned action.

As a heart centred creative, it can feel so scary to give up on something you have been working on for so long.

However  if your soul is calling you to abandon a project that no longer inspires you, you need an experienced mentor to navigate this confusing time.

As a heartcentred entrepreneur if your soul is calling you to evolve from a different niche to another niche because you have evolved, it means you will start making money more QUICKLY. You will start attracting soul aligned clients.  Offers and products will feel effortless to make because it is what your soul is calling you. This is why you set up the business in the first place. Finally you are not surviving or saving but SERVING the customers you always wanted to. Oh that is SO satisfying.

As a heart centred professional, you can lead your clients or team into new opportunities. It makes sense doesn’t it to abandon what you are being told to do and do what is in the long term interest of your client or company. Your managers cannot see it now but you can.  Suddenly convincing them of this doesn’t feel an uphill battle.

Now you understand what I mean by living the fulfilled life, living freely and flowing?

This is the M.A.G.I.C.A.L method that enables you to experience Flow, Freedom and FULFILLMENT FAST!

Did You Love This Article?

Did it really resonate with you? I have a feeling it did because you finally found someone who understands you—someone who can see the importance you place on reflection and has some awareness of the fact that we live in a hustle culture that actually feels very claustrophobic and can see past the superficiality of 21st century life and over reliance on being online.

Acknowledging The Lies of 21st Century life!

In our society, work and personal development are idolized, while drug addiction, alcohol addiction, and sex addiction are viewed as obvious villains. Yet, working is often celebrated in the 21st century, and self-improvement has become a multi-billion dollar industry.

The Limits of Self-Help

However, self-help can only assist you to a certain extent. While it’s important to spend time reflecting and sitting in silence, we are not islands. We are social beings, living in communities—both offline and online.

Many religious and spiritual traditions, some centuries old, teach that you have all the answers within you if you only look deep enough. This is contrary to the New Age Spirituality movement, which often suggests that you need to do certain things to heal. Most religious traditions teach that we come into the world whole and complete, but sadly, we forget this. That’s why it’s crucial to unlearn what we’ve been taught and much of what we see online and in modern psychology.

The Importance of Reflective Practices

Unlearning requires investing in a reflective space with a professional or a set of professionals. In social work and therapy circles, this is common practice and is known as reflective practice or supervision. While many professionals engage in this to understand their clients, I have found that many do not do this for themselves. This applies to innovative change-makers, visionary entrepreneurs, high-performing leaders, and high achievers, who often hire professional help for their teams, families, and pets but neglect their own needs.

In today’s world, where information overload is common and scams are on the rise, discerning who to hire for your personal growth takes time. As a leader, I understand that you need to carefully select a consultant, coach, healer, or therapist who is not only competent but also highly skilled.

The Quest for Transformation

Honestly, I know that what matters to you isn’t just my identity or qualifications, but how quickly I can facilitate your transformation from point A to point B. And you want that transformation yesterday, am I correct?

While I can’t facilitate it overnight, I can certainly do it faster than my competitors.

– What takes others minutes takes me seconds.
– What takes others hours takes me minutes.
– What takes others days takes me hours.
– What takes others weeks takes me days.
– What takes others months takes me weeks.
– What takes others years takes me months.
– What takes others decades takes me years.

The Muslim Alchemist

I brand myself as The Muslim Alchemist, not out of arrogance or because it sounds cool, but because, as one of my coaches pointed out, I truly embody this title. With over thirty years of experience as a practicing social worker in London, United Kingdom, I have learned how to use limited resources to provide opportunity and hope. Even when faced with challenging situations, I have witnessed my clients transform their lives for the better.

By the way, alchemy is the process of transforming base metals into gold. It comes from the Arabic word “Al Chemy.” The ancient Arabs discovered this practice from the Egyptians, who found ways to turn base metals into gold. From alchemy, chemistry and other sciences emerged. Social workers are modern-day alchemists, and through my extensive experience with countless individuals—children, teenagers, parents, and professionals—I have seen many turn their struggles into success.

Personal Experience Matters

My lived experience as a parent of three sons, including one diagnosed with Developmental Language Disorder in 2013, adds depth to my understanding of being a parent and working with children and young people with special education needs. You can trust that I empathize with your struggles and have the insight you seek.

Moreover, I have been married for three decades. You know from your own experiences that long-term relationships come with their challenges, both good and bad. This extensive experience, combined with my knowledge of the human condition, offers you immense wisdom to tap into.

A Non-Judgmental Space

Having studied Islam, Judaism, and Christianity with various religious leaders since 1993, I provide a non-judgmental service rooted in traditional religious and spiritual wisdom.

I offer you **THE REFLECTIVE SPACE** in various forms. No matter how you choose to enter this space, the typical results are profound, rapid, and lasting transformations in health, wealth, or relationships. Many clients have embarked on this reflective journey since I started my business in 2018.

Diverse Transformational Journeys

Some clients, like Zahra*, have completed the personal alchemy journey. Others, like Liz*, have undertaken both personal and identity alchemy journeys. Some have explored all three journeys—personal, identity, and practical—with clients like Asma*.

What use is an adventure if it doesn’t equip you with practical skills for everyday life? Many personal development programs foster dependence on a coach or therapist, but I don’t believe in that model. Some of my clients have rehired me, but usually for entirely different challenges.

To complete the adventure—one that delves into your life and business in depth—there is the emotional alchemy journey. Transmuting repressed feelings requires confronting painful thoughts and emotions. This process demands skill and years of experience, especially if you have buried these feelings deep within. Doing this alongside someone who understands emotional pain can be incredibly liberating and nurturing.

Finding Peace in Vulnerability

I know from personal experience how difficult it can be to face emotional pain. For most of my life, I avoided feeling my own pain, immersing myself in work and family responsibilities until I slowed down in August 2017. The emotional alchemy journey is the hardest path to walk, especially if you’ve numbed your feelings with work and success.

Investing in a professional who understands that there comes a time when you can no longer carry the weight alone can feel incredibly peaceful. It’s like finding a friend who truly understands.

Building a Friendship Takes Time

However, I recognize that building a friendship takes time, and it cannot be established through a single article. I invite you to take a moment out of your busy life to join my Telegram community, where I share videos, audios, and articles, and engage in discussions about the latest insights.

Remember, transformation is possible, but traveling the road less traveled on your own takes a long time. You don’t have to go it alone now that you are awake and seeking a fulfilled life. The journey takes far less time when you have a friend to accompany you.

Taniya Hussain qualified as a Social Worker in 1991 from Coventry University in England, UK. She has been working on the front lines in London UK, consistently holding space for individuals and families in chaos and crisis for three decades especially, children and young people on the margins of society. Taniya studied Psycho-dynamic counselling from 1991 to 1993 at Goldsmiths College in London. Taniya met Sheikha Halima Krausen in 1992 and has been studying Islam with her ever since especially Mystical Islam, Tassawuf (Sufism) and walks on the Chisti path. Taniya fuses Jungian Pyschology and Islamic Psychology and this fusion can best be understood if you read her book Dancing with Darkness which is available on Amazon. It became a Best Seller on Amazon in the UK, U.S and France in April 2025. The book tells the story of Tamara Alvi, a fictional charachter and is a psychological thriller and a story of healing. Taniya started her coaching and consulting business in January 2018 and she works mainly with High Achievers and High Performers and High Performing Leaders, offering reflective spaces since 2018 and what she refers to as THE REFLECTIVE SPACE. Taniya since starting her busines discovered that she is a powerful healer and was shocked that clients were relieved from pain even though they have been diagnosed with a chronic illness. Taniya is delighted to have discovered Paceology, which is the detailed study of PACE. She is the first paceologist. She noticed when working with high performers when you slow down in one area of your life, this causes you to speed up in another area and vice cersa thus leading to increased levels of productivity, creativity, clarity and energy. She brands herself as the Muslim Alchemist because she really is The Muslim Alchemist as she guides you to transfom the base, in other words the shit that you have experienced into GOLD whether that is love of yourself or God or another human being or a healthier body or a life where you feel at peace and calm and fulfilled or more energy or more money. You definintely will feel lighter, more freer and more clearer even if you book one consultation with her or several sessions. Taniya has a very holistic approach when working with individuals and works with you on multiple layers, the emotional, the psychological, the social, the physical, the mental and the spriritual. She uses stories from the Quran and the Bible when working with clients on a one to one basis or in group workshops as well as breathwork, body scanning, cognitive behavioural therapy, neuro linguistic programming, motivational interviewing. systems theory, neuro science. She is trained in multiple modalities as well as using her own Paceology and insists on offering her clients a trauma informed and trauma responsive service. She is constantly integrating her knowledge of the Quran and Bible with her vast social work experience and training. Taniya's extensive ability of applying psycho-dynamic theory to organisational settings, teams and groups as well as to individuals results in those who attend her sessions or workshops as feeling lighter and more energised. Taniya uses skillfully her understanding of the Shadow, that Jung constantly talked about and her Mystical Training. She also has integrated her passion for inter-faith dialogue and the archetypes that Jung often refers to, come alive in her one to one sessions and her group workshops thus resulting in individuals feeling more freer and fulfilled after they stop working with her. Taniya just does not provide clarity she WAKES you up to. Taniya has a great skill in being able to see the blind spots in others and does this in a non judgemental way and a way that you feel safe. She also "untangles energetic knots" (a term she uses for Shadow) in your body to promote healing from mental and physical disease. Clients usually are healed in a short amount of time because she pinpoints the memory, the event, the thought that first caused the disease. She also provides one to one sessios or training workshops to social work teams, school, secure and prison estate on youth justice, knife crime prevention as well asidentification and prevention of early onset of burnout. Taniya has three sons, who were born in 1996, 2001 and 200 and lives in Surrey, England and when she is not coaching or writing songs, blogs and poems, she loves to spend time, travelling, walking, listening to music, watching films or playing cricket. She speaks fluent English and Urdu and basic German and French and is learning Arabic and Hebrew.
