In this powerful and intimate conversation, host Mark Wiley sits down with Sheikha Maryam Kabeer, American Sufi guide, author, and seeker of divine truth. Drawing from her memoir Journey Through Ten Thousand Veils, Maryam shares the remarkable story of her lifelong quest for spiritual transformation—from growing up in the U.S. to studying with masters in Afghanistan, India, Sri Lanka, and Tibet, and ultimately finding a home on the Sufi path of love under the guidance of Bawa Muhaiyaddeen.

This episode explores themes of surrender, sacred feminine empowerment in Islam, interfaith wisdom, and what it means to walk the path of the heart in today’s world. Maryam also speaks about her work teaching Arabic and Islamic studies, her support for incarcerated women, and the creation of her Philadelphia home as a refuge for seekers.
