Diamond Member Arjumand Reverses Pcod

Hello everyone and welcome to our YouTube channel. This is Deenaz here, health and fitness coach since over 29 years, been on a mission to help men and women in there to get fit and healthy from the comforts of their own home. And thank you so much for subscribing to our channel. And we have this really special, uh, playlist called The Game Changers, and in this we have beautiful stories of very lovely people who have joined the Dynaz Fitness community and have got some amazing results. Now, when I talk to you all about results, it does not necessarily have to be about weight loss. It could be about your mind, it could be about your body, it could be about reversing medical problems. And today we have somebody really beautiful who is here to share her amazing journey. Thank you so much, Arjuman, for being here on our show.

Thank you so much, Dynaz. Thank you for having me, and thank you for doing what you do and for inspiring so many women around the world.

Fantastic. Which city are you from, Arjumand?

I'm from Chennai, based in Chennai.

Fantastic, fantastic. And could you, um, tell us what you do?

Sure. So I'm a Quranic guidance coach, and I empower Muslim women specifically, and I help them lead their lives according to the principles of the Quran and Sunnah. And as you can see the background, that's my brand called Your Sister in Islam, which is basically an endeavor to create a safe space for Muslim women to be able to share their worries, concerns, to help each other out, basically to uplift and help each other and come up in society.

Wow, so you must be the first Muslim lady to have started something like this.

Uh, yes, one of the few. This is, uh, something that is relatively new in India, and it's something that I endeavor to do in collaboration with a lot of other women also. But yes, this is a one of a kind because I have been a Quran teacher for the last 15 years.

Wow.

I've noticed that, you know, while we understand and read the Quran, there is a gap and a lack in the fact that we are able to take the principles of the Quran and how to imbibe it in our daily lives. So that's essentially what I help women do, where it's take— wherein taking the principles of the Quran and how to practically apply them in our daily lives for the solutions to all our problems, all our everyday problems. Wow, wow, wow.

I mean, so basically it is using the principles of the Quran and you're, you're actually a life coach for them.

Yes.

That's awesome, awesome, fantastic. So I mean, really interesting. And, uh, so let us, let us, uh, understand how was your health and fitness journey? When did you join the Dynaz Fitness community?

I joined the Dinaz Business Community in March 2021.

Oh, very early.

Yes, March 2021. I was one of the first few ones to join you, and I started by joining the Silver membership, right? And then 2 months later, by May 2022— I was all— sorry, May 2021, I was already on Gold. And that's when my journey with you started. And the, uh, point The main thing I'd like to stress is it was like you very rightly said, yes, the thing was to lose weight, the intention was to lose weight when I joined, but what I got was much, much, much more. It was about the mindset where you focus on mind programming, especially on the Diamond level. It was more about the mindset that I needed to change. My weight loss journey has been going on years, you know, where I've been on this yo-yo weight journey for about, or more than 20, 30 years. Um, but I was finally able to lose the weight and keep it off, which was a key thing. Keep it off following your system, because your— what you offer is not only a, you know, a very time-bound thing, it's a complete entire system which works on the mindset, which works on the eating habits, which works on the nutrition, which comes as a package, which I found really, really, really helpful, uh, because it helped me get to a place where I could incorporate it and inculcate it in my daily life as a part of a routine, not something that you do like before a wedding and then you let go of it after that. Right, right. It's become part of my life now.

So prior to joining DFC, had you tried out different kinds of programs or gone to a gym or done anything on your own or gone for a nutrition program? Did you try any of these things out?

Yes, um, so whatever was new in the market, I used to try it out, whether it was the paleo, whether it was the keto, whether it was a new gym in terms of, uh, you know, a new gym that had come up. I have done it all, all Pilates programs, gym programs, you know, hardcore weight training, um, uh, you know, aerobics, all those kind of things. Zumba, not aerobics, Zumba, all those kind of things. I've tried everything under the sun, but I was not able to sustain anything and make it a part of my life. Because this helped me when I joined your program, the step-by-step methodology that you follow, it helped me bring about a lifestyle. Style change.

Fantastic. So what kind of breakthroughs have you got since joining the Dynaz Fitness community?

Okay, so yes, um, so I had joined with the intention of weight loss, right? But eventually that ended up being a byproduct. What actually I was able to do was two primary things. One was I was able to reverse PCOD. Now I've been suffering from PCOD for the last, uh, 17 years. That's when my son was born, 17 years. And, um, you know, it was a vicious cycle of losing weight and then, uh, rectifying PCOD, but PCOD wouldn't let you lose weight. So I was always in this vicious cycle. Yes. And using it as an excuse, which is where the mindset thing really helps saying, no, it's not an excuse. It's something that can be worked on and can be done. And so I had gone for my scan a couple of months ago. I was truly surprised. After 2 years of being on this journey, I was free from PCOS. Wow. When my, when my doctor told me that you don't have PCOD anymore, I was, I was like, wow. I think God, and truly thank you for designing the system and offering such a system where a combination of eating eating habits, mindset, and making exercise a lifestyle, which has truly helped me come out of PCOD. And the other thing which I'd like to mention is the gain in energy, which is, you know, I was always feeling tired and lethargic, and I wouldn't understand why. But the moment I started improving my eating habits and working out, the energy level really, you know, I was really able to up my energy level and where I, I could keep up my energy level with my kids, you know, and I have two teenage children, so I could keep up my energy levels with that. I actually even ran a marathon during— from home, uh, you know, thanks to one of the other members, which is, um, uh, about the community, um, thanks to one of the other members where, you know, helping each other, and we were really guiding and helping and pushing each other. So when energy was phenomenal, very nice.

So when we talk about, uh, your journey prior to coming here, all the places that you want to— nobody talked about the focus of mind. Everybody, even today in our country, people are 100% focused about workout and all more about diets. And we know that going on a diet means you're going to lose weight and you're going to bounce it back again. And we also know that not working out is not an option. And you knew that before you came also. But, uh, tell our viewers, how did the mind programming— because people don't understand the coaching, you know, as a coach you understand what I'm talking about. People don't understand. A lot of people ask me, oh, you're running classes online. I say, no, online the workouts are just a byproduct of what I'm doing. My main forte is about coaching and mentoring people. So can you, as a coach, can you tell and educate the people a little bit more about how the coaching program at DFC helped you?

Yes, the coaching program was priceless, and I'll tell you why. Because for a person, uh, for a person like me where I was stuck in this vicious cycle which I mentioned earlier It was more about mindset than anything else. It was time that I gave my health priority, and that's what the mindset helped me work. See, a lot of results that we need to achieve come— has to come from our mind. Now, whether it's weight loss or you want to attain something in life or you want to achieve something in life, it all starts with the mind first. And as a coach, we, we know that. So what this helped— the mind programming really helped, um, start off the process at an ingrained level where it became ingrained and it became part of my being, where I knew that this is about me. I need to prioritize my health because at the rate I was going, it was deteriorating. So I need to, to have that mindset shift before anything else to be able to say, now I can achieve what I'm achieving. Or even if it was to reverse PCOD, whatever it was, it all starts with the mind. And this was really something unique in your program, Dee, which drew me towards your program because I never realized that losing weight could be about the mindset. I never realized it till I joined your program. So thank you for that. Wow.

And I know that when you joined, I recall when you joined DFC, you had not— you were teaching, but you had not started your coaching business.

No.

So what has inspired you to start your coaching business?

So, um, when I joined you, uh, this was in March, and at that time It was a very tumultuous time in my life where, you know, uh, it was all about learning to find that balance because we were in a situation— it was during the COVID— and we were in a situation, we were all thrust in a situation the world over where we were struggling and grappling to find that balance because everything had been literally turned topsy-turvy. A lot of us were struggling, and I felt it was not only a health issue, it was, you know, a mental well-being issue, a mindset issue that we were all suffering from. And in an attempt to make sense of the situation, in an attempt to do my part in how I could help women, this is, you know, this was my endeavor that I started. And it had a lot to do with, like I said, the energy that I had to help people, thanks to your program, and the mindset shift, which made me realize that you know, I need to do something, I need to help, you know, I was able to help myself, and now I need to pay it forward to be able to help other people as well. And so I got thinking, what is it that I do that can help other people? And that's where this entire idea came out from.

Fantastic. So do you have a system in place where people can come and reach out to you?

Yes, absolutely. I have. So it's an entirely digital setup, entirely online setup. And I have my webinar from which they can come into my webinar, they can attend my webinar and take the system forward from there. I'd be happy to share the link with you. Yes.

So as we conclude this session, could you tell our viewers 3 takeaways that you see, things from our system that helped you in your journey?

Yes, absolutely. Number 1, never underestimate the power of the mind. You can, you can, you may want to achieve anything in life, whether regarding your health, regarding your financial situation, regarding your relationships, anything you may want to achieve in life. Never underestimate the power of the mind. It always starts with the mind. Number 2, uh, anything, um, it's not only about the, the power of the community is priceless. It's always about You know, feeling part of a community that you know are there for you. And that is what I truly value in this community. People are there, they got your back. If you have not performed to the level that they know you can, they will push you. Um, they will, uh, hold you accountable and they will ask you if you've done it or not done it or whatever. Uh, so that is priceless. And of course, the last thing, the, the weekly meets that we have. And the value that you provide. The weekly meets that we have, they ensure that, you know, we are up to par. And the gentle push that you do, that you give us when you know we are not performing to our peak, that is truly priceless. So these are the 3 fantastic things that I've learned in this community. And based on that, I've endeavored— thank you so much— to start a community of my own.

Fantastic. Really, really happy to, uh, to be speaking to you. Very empowered. And congratulations on being the runners-up, second runners-up on the Super Speaker contest conducted by Success Gyan. It's, uh, I really wish that your voice goes out to many women, especially women in from the Muslim community are the ones who really are, a lot of them are leading very suppressed and oppressed lives, and they are the ones who really need tremendous amount of life coaching, and they will not be able to resonate with a regular life coach as well, as much as they will be able to resonate with you. So I'm really proud of what you are doing because I myself have worked with the Muslim community when I had my, uh, physical gyms. So I know what the women go through, and I know the privacy factor, and I know the issues that they go through. So really amazing work. So those of you who are inspired, just let me know in the chat in the description box, that in the comments below, that you're inspired. And for those of you who are from the Muslim community and who would like to get started with your journey as a— and looking for a life coach, I want you to click on the link and register for her webinar. She's amazing, and I'll be putting the link to her, to her webinar in the description box. Just go attend the webinar, it's free, and connect with her and start your journey. And it's an amazing journey. So once again, thank you so much, Arjumand, being part of this show, and I look forward to keeping in touch with you and guiding you and mentoring you.
