The Imaginal Portal: A Year Long Study

Zulaikha holds space with a rare and deeply felt wisdom—one that honors the unseen, the ancestral, and the expansive possibilities of radical imagination. Their offerings are not just practices but portals, invitations to remember and embody our interconnectedness. Whether through ancestor practice, group sessions, or oracle readings, Zulaikha weaves together tenderness, depth, and liberation with such care.

Practicing with them has helped me tap into a sense of rootedness and spaciousness that I carry beyond our time together. They have a way of guiding that feels both ancient and emergent, like being gently ushered toward the truths I already hold but needed help seeing. If you're looking for a space to be witnessed, to explore, and to expand, Zulaikha creates that with such love and integrity.

When it feels like both the individual and collective are facing endless obstacles, zulaikha's Radical Imagination course is a welcomed respite. They cradled a universe in which we were able to shake off the constrictions of "how it's always been" and step into the vastness of our own creativity and fantasies.

From the very beginning when we collaborated on community agreements to guided meditative practices to the final day of sharing our wildest hopes for the future, zulaikha allowed us to grow into the vision that was calling out to each one of us. The affirmation and support of this course has inspired me to tap further into my ancestral and creative practices with the curiosity I had as a child. It was a true honor to experience and I encourage all who hear the calling to reroot to gift themselves this space of Radical Imagination.

Zulaikha’s radical dreaming practice is something I return to often even now after our classes have finished. Their voice soothes as they encourage you to befriend your wounded body and root into the earth.

This practice is for people who believe in the vital importance of dreaming, and want to strengthen their tools to do so. Unsurprisingly, the online space cultivated often feels like a gift to be in, as Zulaikha holds so much space for their practitioners to come as they are and accept their own starting place. I can’t recommend this practice enough!

Zulaikha doesn't just talk Radical Imagination - they study it, embody it, teach it, cultivate it, and encourage it through their words, actions, offerings, and energy. Sharing space with them is a gift and an opportunity to create in real time, to move through ways of being with kindness, care, patience, and strength. If you have the benefit of being in community with them, embrace it!

Zulaikha brings a fully embodied approach to her politics, principles, values, and radical imagination in this 12-week course. I was able to let go and let -G- (nope)... the power of community and co-creation make me believe in a better world, better present, and better future, for myself and others. There is something magical about suspending disbelief and allowing your Higher Self to take over that is very special in this offering. The practices, sharings, learnings, and Buddhist principles made the course feel very grounding/grounded despite it living in the "imaginal" and dreaming together. I felt welcomed, embraced, loved, and cared for, by a group of complete strangers miles away. That's the power of coming together to co-create.

Zulaikha’s class was an absolute blessing for me! This course helped me in so many way and I truly can’t express just how much it brought hope and joy into my life. Coming into this course, I was really deeply struggling to see a future and even a hopeful present for myself. Zulaikha led me along a journey through remembering my power, childlike wonder, and radical imagination! They held our hands and hearts every step of the way. I left Zulaikha’s course with so many new imagination, hope, and care practices! I cannot stress enough how much support and care Zulaikha gifted us with during our time together. I truly am so appreciative of how much personal and spiritual growth I was able to have due to this incredible journey with Zulaikha. I would so highly recommend Zulaikha’s courses to everyone!

Zulaikha is an exceptional facilitator who created a profoundly safe and inclusive space for exploration and growth. Throughout the course, Zulaikha skillfully guided us with embodiment practices and creative exercises, helping us uncover how imagination can serve as a tool for navigating life's daily struggles. Their deep understanding of the oppressive systems that disconnect us from our inherent creativity allowed them to hold space with compassion and clarity. They showed a remarkable talent for helping us tap into hope, resilience, and joy as a resource for facing systemic challenges.

Zulaikha’s facilitation was trauma-informed and deeply intentional. They demonstrated a profound respect for each participant's journey, meeting us with gentleness and encouragement as we explored practices such as visioning and collective world-building. Their ability to bring together inspiration from the Black radical feminist tradition, Buddhist teachings, and somatic practices made the course not only enriching but deeply impactful. Thanks to Zulaikha's guidance, I left the course with a renewed sense of possibility and practical tools. Their work embodies the belief that collective imagination is a pathway to liberation. I wholeheartedly recommend Zulaikha as a facilitator and guide for anyone seeking to reconnect with their imagination, community, and inner resources.
