Qayyim | TAQWA

In our latest podcast, we hear from Qayyim, who switched from engineering to financial advising back in 2009. He found his true passion in helping people understand their finances, rather than building things as an engineer. Qayyim is all about making a difference in his community, using what he knows to clear up any confusion about money and insurance.

Qayyim started by knocking on doors to find clients, learning to deal with rejection and figuring out the best ways to help people listen. He talks about setting up TAQWA, his dream to create a financial service that feels welcoming to everyone, especially in the Muslim community. Qayyim also gives some tips for new financial advisors, like being honest and really listening to what people need, and learning by actually doing things, not just reading about them.
