Naima B. Robert – What is Showing Up

San Diego My name is name OB Robert. And my new book is

entitled show up a motivational message for Muslim women and men

who pick up the book. And the reason I wrote this book is that

every single one of us has the choice to be a victim or a hero of

our own life story. And in this book, I share with you the six

steps that I have discovered, that allow me to show up on a day to

day basis as the hero of my life story, no matter what is

happening. So in today's times, when there's so much uncertainty,

so much fear, so much anxiety about the future, there is no

better time to make a decision to show up fully for your life. A lot

of people asked me, you know, what does showing up look like? What

does it even mean? To show up, I'd like to share with you a little

bit about what I say in the book, to show up is to be present mind

and body, to take responsibility to take ownership to bring your

true self to whatever role you are called on to play with all your

imperfections and vulnerability in tow. It is to recommit to your

life and your purpose. It is to perform the role you are created

to fulfill to do the work you were put here to do. I define showing

up as an action and an attitude. So I've got a question for you. Do

you think you're showing up as your full self every day? And if

not, are you ready to change? Let us know in the comments how you

feel that you could be showing up better. And I pray in sha Allah

that this book and this conversation will open your mind

to ways in which you could be living more fully more boldly as

the hero of your life story today.
