Talks for every audience.
Unapologetically Muslim
Being Muslim isn’t something to hide or apologize for. Audiences learn to appreciate their faith, answer hard questions with clarity, and carry Islam with confidence into every space they enter.
Ambition Rooted in Faith
Success that honors both this life and the next. Audiences learn to let go of the belief that wanting more is wrong, and to pursue meaningful goals with confidence, purpose, and trust in Allah.
Peace & Power Through Trust in Allah
Strength that comes from knowing Allah. Audiences discover how His Names and promises bring peace in hardship, steadiness under pressure, and a calm heart through every challenge.
Making the Most of Sacred Seasons
A practical, sustainable approach to Ramadan, its last 10 nights, and Dhul Hijjah that avoids overwhelm and builds habits that last.

About Aisha
Aisha Arshad moves audiences to become their best selves by weaving classical Islamic knowledge with modern personal growth. With a Higher Diploma in Islamic Studies and an M.S. in Educational Technology, she has spoken at Cornell University, the University of Michigan, AlMaghrib Institute, and masjids across Michigan. She is also the founder of The Strong Believer, her coaching program that has served more than 70 Muslim women worldwide.
Aisha brings two worlds into one room: classical Islamic knowledge and modern personal growth. Drawing on a Higher Diploma in Islamic Studies, an M.S. in Educational Technology, and 30 years of studying self-development, she shows audiences that becoming a better Muslim and striving to become a better version of themselves are the same journey.
Her work began with understanding her community. In 2016, as a Research Assistant with the Institute for Social Policy and Understanding (ISPU), she interviewed more than 40 Michigan Muslims for the Muslims for American Progress study. In 2018 she began speaking in Muslim community spaces with her first signature talk, “How to Be Unapologetically Muslim and Live Your Best Life.” A year later she became a Certified Speaker with ING MidWest, presenting “Getting to Know American Muslims and Their Faith” at schools, colleges, and civic organizations across Michigan.
She has also spent years teaching Islamic knowledge. She served as Academics Head for Qabeelah Ittihaad, the Michigan chapter of AlMaghrib Institute, leading a weekly online halaqa on topics ranging from the Names of Allah to the leadership qualities of the Prophet ﷺ, to A Life Well-Lived. Today she regularly teaches classes for new Muslims through Muslim Enrichment Project.
All of this work comes together in The Strong Believer, her signature coaching program for Muslim women, built on one idea: growth guided by faith. Now an expanded 12-week experience, it has served more than 70 women across five cohorts.
Through it all, she stays rooted in her local community: she’s an active member of the Plymouth-Canton Interfaith Community Outreach group, serves on the Community Advisory Panel for Detroit PBS, and was recently elected as a precinct delegate.
What audiences are saying
“Our volunteers and committee members were very motivated with your presentation, Alhumdulillah.”
“You are an amazing speaker.”
“She gave a very beneficial talk at the University of Michigan. Her insights should be heard by all Muslims and non-Muslims.”
“I was very impressed by its high level of professionalism and accessibility, as I am sure the primary audience of school counselors was as well. CMENAS very much looks forward to working with you and ING Midwest in the future inshallah!”
“We all loved the workshop style talk she gave! Left us all with lots of insightful thoughts, and gems! We are planning to have her back for a part 2!”
“With the monotony of our usually fixed schedules and the thousands of tasks we try to cram in our days, it is easy to lose ourselves in anything and everything. But that’s not a way to live and I admire the way you conveyed that message through prioritizing our deen and what we love.”
