What if the entire approach to building Muslim economic power has been flawed from the start? 💸
For 15 years, Sabiha Ansari, co-founder of the American Muslim Consumer Consortium (AMCC), has been in the trenches. She’s seen the boom in Muslim-owned businesses, the rise of modest fashion, and the halal food revolution. But she’s also identified a critical, systemic failure that is holding our community back.
In this episode, she reveals why building more mosques and donating to charity—while noble—isn't enough to create a lasting economic ecosystem that can benefit generations. This is a conversation that challenges the status quo and reveals the uncomfortable truth about collaboration, capital, and legacy.

The "collaboration myth" and why good intentions aren't enough.
How billions in community capital are being misdirected.
