Welcome to Zuma Talks!
Zuma Talks is a passion project from a dad who loves sharing stories, big ideas, and moments of wonder with his kids. Dive in for adventures, timeless lessons, and sparkling conversations for curious kids and the grown-ups who love to listen with them.
Why Stories Matter
Stories spark imagination, build empathy, and help us see the world through new eyes. At Zuma Talks, we believe that sharing stories—especially those rooted in wisdom, faith, and adventure—can help our kids grow into kind, curious, and courageous people.
Our hope is that these stories will light up your family's conversations, inspire big dreams, and remind us all that every heart has a story worth sharing.
Why These Stories & Topics?
Some of our stories are inspired by the teachings and traditions of Islam, offering my children a way to connect with their roots, values, and sense of self. We're grateful for the chance to share these tales—stories that have inspired us—with your family, too.
Yet, the lessons within—about kindness, resilience, and the beauty of discovery—are for everyone. Whether you share our beliefs or are simply curious, we invite you to listen, learn, and find your own meaning in these stories. We hope they light up your family's journey, wherever you come from.
