Finding Freedom from Oppression with Fizz Shah – Part 1
Today’s Guest
In this interview on the Start Anew Show with Fizz Shah, we unfold her incredible journey of finding freedom. We are not talking about freedom to work from home or from the beach but freedom to be herself, to speak her mind and follow her dreams. This is the story of a young woman who spends the first 23 years of her life behind a veil, oppressed by her family and the society. She shares with us her story of how she breaks away from the shackles and finds freedom in a foreign land.
