Muslims Doing Things

About Muslims Doing Things

Hi! I am Layla Shaikley (@laylool), I co-founded a tech company and I am also visibly Muslim. So, my identity has been front and center throughout my life and career. I have lived a lifetime of reclaiming my narrative. This is my podcast where I will interview fellow Muslim guests with interesting career paths reclaiming theirs too. I'll share insights on my journey throughout the way. Listen if you want career inspo, life inspo, or just to know what’s up. https://www.instagram.com/laylool/ https://www.tiktok.com/@laylool https://www.instagram.com/muslimsdoingthings/ Views are my own laylool.substack.com (https://laylool.substack.com?utm_medium=podcast)

It is because people mirror cues. protect your time like it matters, and they’ll treat it like it does. This is a public episode.
