A Helwa: The Best-Selling Writer on Overcoming Criticism, Choosing Love & More!

I'm so excited for this week's episode because the fangirl in me got to speak to one of my fav writers, A Helwa. Helwa wrote "Secrets of Divine Love"  - a book that I cannot recommend enough (if you haven't get it, please do!) -  and only Allah knows how much I've highlighted the heavens out of it! This episode with Helwa was also the first one I recorded for Season 2, and I was nervous that I'd be rusty from the break, but... Subhanallah, this conversation that I had with Helwa filled me in ways I cannot even imagine. We spoke about how we all plagiarised from Allah as writers and creatives, we spoke about how criticisms are sometimes the best round of applause, her choice to stay anonymous even with a following of almost 550k, but most importantly we spoke about love. This is honestly, one of my fave episodes on TAAS!  PS: If you want to hear more from me, I also write the Tuesday Love Letters and I'd love for you to subscribe. To know more: aidaazlin.com
