159 – Daring to Ask
This week Nadia continues sharing Jasmine’s stories.
The early morning sun gently caressed Jasmine’s delicate features. It felt like being on the beach, she thought. But how could that be? Usually, it’s dark until she’s in the kitchen. Wanting to enjoy the moment for as long as possible, she didn’t dare open her eyes. It was a moment of peaceful bliss, something she didn’t experience in over twenty years.
As she adjusted her pillow, something sharp pricked her finger. She opened her eyes to see what had caused the pain. It was Allan Knight’s business card. She smiled She had put it underneath her pillow, wanting to sleep with the thought that there are people in this world who care about others.
Looking around, she suddenly remembered. Yesterday night, after the incident with Gray, she had moved from the master bedroom to the guest bedroom. And for the first time in years, she had left the windows unobstructed. Gray always insisted on having the room in total darkness, and so for years, she accommodated his needs. Cold and dark seemed to be Gray’s way to live. The truth is she loved waking up with the sun, and now the whole bedroom was immersed in the sun coming from the east-side window.
Why did she not think of changing the room sooner?

There may be no perfect relationship, but there is no fear in love. In this episode, Nadia shares Jasmine’s struggles mainly with her husband, Gray Frost.
Gray used to be kind, loving, and jolly until Jasmine was promoted as Director of Marketing at Disney. Somehow, the day she out-earned Gray was the day he turned resentful and envious.
Soon after, Gray’s grudge turned against himself. Without purpose and direction in life, he sets his eyes on Jasmine, dragging her into a life of misery and unhappiness.
Jasmine found clever ways to cope with Gray during the past few years. But being unemployed due to the pandemic, Jasmine is now more exposed to Gray’s negative treatment and is about to drown in complete surrender — until she experienced a Divine intervention.
Listen to Episode156 – Am I Happy?
Three words, eight letters, one question: “Am I happy?”
A single question indeed, but potent enough to change your life. In this episode, Nadia takes us back into Jasmine’s world and her quest for a happy and meaningful life.
Jasmine doesn’t have it easy. Life can be unkind and cruel regardless of one’s status in life. You may have all the money in the world or be offered the greatest job and still feel unhappy inside.
In this story, we see in Jasmine how sometimes success does not equate with happiness.
Listen to Episode155 – Are you ready for inner transformation
Her “happy-me” moments are when she walks to the park to sip her coffee, leaving behind the thought of cooking or cleaning. Sitting and breathing fresh air allows for some needed time to think and reflect about her life.
In this episode, Nadia narrates a compelling tale about Jasmine’s curiosity, her willingness to act on it, and her courage to choose her own path. Nadia brings us into a world of struggle, growth, and change. It’s a story about you.
Apparently, curiosity didn’t kill the cat. In its complete and unabridged version, “Curiosity killed the cat, but satisfaction brought it back.”
Nadia is telling us that no change is easy. No growth is ever comfortable. But if nothing ever changed, there’d be no such things as butterflies.
