Meet The 
Founder

HERHIJABSPACE WAS CREATED WITH INTENTION, HEART, AND A DEEP UNDERSTANDING FOR WHAT IT MEANS TO MOVE THROUGH THE WORLD AS A MUSLIM WOMAN. FOUNDED BY MARIAMA SOW, THIS SPACE WAS BORN FROM A DESIRE TO BRING WOMAN TOGETHER TO CREATE SOMETHING THAT FEELS SAFE, EMPOWERING, AND TRULY OURS. 

​

AS A CONTENT CREATOR MARIAMA HAS ALWAYS BEEN PASSIONATE ABOUT STORYTELLING, REPRESENTATION, AND CONNECTION. THROUGH HER EXPERIENCES, SHE RECOGNIZED A GAP: THERE WEREN'T  ENOUGH SPACES WHERE MUSLIM WOMEN CAN COME TOGETHER, FEEL SEEN, AND JUST BE- WITHOUT JUDGEMENT, WITHOUT PRESSURE, AND WITHOUT HAVING TO EXPLAIN THEMSELVES. 

​

FROM INTIMATE CONVERSATIONS TO FUN, CURATED EXPERIENCES, EVERY GATHERING IS DESIGNED TO CELEBRATE IDENTITY, BUILD CONFIDENCE, AND FOSTER GENUINE SISTERHOOD. 

​

WHAT STARTED AS A IDEA HAS NOW BECOME A MOVEMENT ROOTED IN EMPOWERMENT, CREATIVITY, AND CONNECTION. MARIAMA CONTINUES TO BUILD HERHIJABSPACE WITH ONE GOAL IN MIND: TO CREATE A SPACE WHERE EVERY MUSLIM WOMAN FEELS LIKE SHE BELONGS
