Why It’s NEVER TOO LATE To Start Over

Zainab Al Yakoob
About this episode

Ever thought about reinventing yourself… but didn’t know where to start? This week, Zainab is joined by her sister Fatimah (@labookay)—fitness coach, mental health advocate, and the only person who can humble her mid-sentence—for a deep dive into starting over at any age.

From career pivots to healing your body and mindset, we’re unpacking what it really takes to rewrite your story without the shame or pressure. Is it ever too late to start fresh, or are we just scared of what people will say?

And yes, there’s a heated roast session about who’s the bigger diva on vacation (spoiler: it’s a close call).

All this and more in this week’s episode!
