What challenges did Shabana Markar face on her journey?
The journey getting here was really, really difficult. It was a lot more difficult than it seems. I actually almost lost my life over the podcast because before the podcast happened, the 48 hours when I got accepted, I was being called stupid and I was being told that it was a scam.
Shabana Markar is a purpose-driven humanitarian leader, entrepreneur and the founder of the Mercy Mission. Drawing from her passion for service and community impact, she empowers women in underserved communities through outreach, advocacy and initiatives rooted in compassion, faith and lasting change.
How did Shabana's near-death experience shape her perspective?
If you're able to stand tall every day and just be kind and loving towards yourself and forgiving towards yourself as well as everyone you meet, the world will change. And the world needs love and kindness and empathy more than everyone. The difference is not how much money you make and it's not how many awards you win. It's just the little things in life that you may do that make a huge impact. And so when you realize your worth and you realize your value, that's where mercy begins.
It spans the globe like a super high school internet. Today, Apple is going to reinvent the phone. It's not over until I win. The Living Your Legacy podcast. For those who live to leave a legacy. That's extraordinary. The impossible. Oh, that is sensational.

Welcome back to another powerful episode of the Women in Power podcast.
For Insight Success, I'm Ray Gutierrez. Today, joining me is quite a unique, powerful woman. I'm going to let her introduce herself, but I heard she's called the Mercy Queen. That is quite the name, ma'am. Tell us more about this.
I have a podcast called The Mercy Queen because I've developed a trifecta model that I'm working on with a lot of heart. The Mercy Queen podcast, mercy is something that. is usually unexpected. And sometimes it's defined as something that not only is unexpected, but it comes to you when you need it the most. And it also comes to you sometimes if you don't even deserve it. And that's usually kind of the cognitive definition of mercy.
What is the significance of self-compassion in helping others?
And kindness is something that should be encompassed for everyone and every human being. So I'm called the Mercy Queen because I try to encompass self-compassion and self-awareness as well. It's a dual thing. So the Mercy Queen podcast is all about having a system where people come together and talk about all venues of mercy, whether it's mercy and depression, mercy and grief, mercy and self-love. And so that's what the Mercy Queen podcast is about. But it's part of a trifecta model that I've developed in my business model, as well as a nonprofit model that I've had that are merged as a triad that I've developed.
Wow. Before we get into the triad, as I adorn my triforce here, first of all, 10-hour flight, you sprinted, you're in Miami. Talk about the journey getting here, having this conversation with me.
The journey getting here was really, really difficult. It was a lot more difficult than it seems because when I first got accepted to this podcast, it was a huge honor. And my best friend is with me, who's just my, you know, she's with me and she's my soulmate. But, you know, the journey here was not just about almost missing a fight.
How can small acts of kindness create a massive impact?
And having to run sprint like 20 minutes and like within like 10 seconds get on the flight. But it was also a journey where I actually almost lost my life over the podcast. Because before the podcast happened, the 48 hours when I got accepted, I was being called stupid. And I was being told that it was a scam. And it really, really hurt me. And so I actually overdosed on June 11th. And I was in the psych ward for five days. because I kind of lost hope.
What does Shabana mean by redefining success beyond money?
And it was not encompassing self-compassion for myself because all the pain that has ever hit me in my life from like childhood, from being bullied to the day that I was accepted to the podcast, I just gave up. And so coming here today and being alive to be here is like a huge honor. Okay. Sorry. I know it's a lot more than what you asked about the flight.
