As a high achiever, a high performing leader, a high performer, an over achiever, an over-giver, does this article resonate with you?

Does article this make you ask these questions.
What is happening to humanity?
Are we innately evil or innately good?
Where is our moral compass?
Does our humanity and concern for the other have a political limit?
What is happening in Gaza and the silence of some, the turning away from some in our society shows the depths to what we have sunk to?
“The Questions are more important than the answers” The Muslim Alchemist
Yes I will quote myself and I am sure others have said this same sentence before me.
These are the questions I ask when I read this article.
There are many articles and many people writing on what is happening in Gaza.
There are many who are documenting on Gaza by photos and videos
This though, touched me because it spoke about how we are becoming numb to the pain and suffering of other human beings.
As a social worker who has worked with children most of her life who knows very closely the numbness that UK society has become to the suffering caused by knife crime and serious youth violence, this article hits my gut.
We here in the UK are becoming indifferent to the serious youth violence that is on happening far too frequently.
We in the world are becoming indifferent to the violence, the forced starvation that is happening in Gaza
At a core level.
And indifference is the opposite of love isn’t it?
And for those who have been following my blogs for a while and you don’t like what I say, unfollow me, please do so, I don’t stand with those who have no compassion or love for children who have a political limit for this love.
This article for me shows the need for the pink movement, the pink club etc where you don’t pay me a penny, you just join wearing your pink 🩷 hat, your pink object or clothing because you care about humanity and you love humanity.
It’s time to resurrect the movement.
When you care?
When give a damn?
When you are ready!
This article will not end the same way as my other articles do because this time its not about my business and making money.
It’s about these hashtags below
#PinkMovement
#pinkclub
#pinkhatties
It’s about offering #reflectivespaces for you and me
I don’t offer The Reflective Space by accident.
I believe now I was always meant to.
The world needs reflective spaces more than ever where we can reflect on what is going on in the world without judgement and safely.

Just in case you didn’t read the article at the beginning, here it is again.
The article needs to be read.
If you read anything else today read this.
Have a good rest of the week.

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.
