Rising Convert Experience
Salam! Hola, and welcome! I’m Kelly, the host of the Rising Convert Experience Podcast. I’m a Latina Muslim convert, Guatemalan by heritage, born and raised in Canada. I grew up in beautiful British Columbia but now call Alberta home. I have two siblings—fun fact: one of them is my twin!
But enough about me—This podcast is where we dive deep into the journey of being a Muslim convert, embracing faith, navigating life with a fresh perspective, and explore the diverse journeys of Muslims—whether you're newly embracing Islam, years into your journey, or just curious about what it's like to be a convert, this space is for you.

Ep. 27 | Willing To Stand Alone: How I ACTUALLY got through it all.
In this episode, I open up about what it really means to me to stand alone as a Muslim convert—when you're not just choosing a faith, but choosing yourself.
From navigating awkward conversations and situations, to making choices that don’t always sit well with others, this is a reflection on the quiet strength it takes to live your truth unapologetically. I share how the willingness to stand alone has shaped the way I show up in the world, honor my values, and build respectful relationships that see me.
It hasn’t always been easy—but learning to be unshaken, brave, and grounded in my faith has been the most powerful part of my journey.
This one’s for anyone who’s had to choose conviction over comfort. 💬✨
