Wise Women with Daisy Khan
Taliban leaders stared across the table. The fate of women's rights hung in the balance. Dr. Daisy Khan didn't flinch. This is Wise women with Daisy Khan, where spirituality gets teeth and tradition finds its voice in today's chaos. Each week, Dr. Khan shatters expectations as she tackles global crises, cultural divides, and spiritual questions that others avoid. Former architectural designer turned international activist, she occupies a rare space between East and West, bringing guests who challenge, inspire, and occasionally shock. Male voices have dominated religious discourse long enough. With unflinching clarity and zero judgment, Dr. Khan explores everything from the spiritual significance of tariff wars to the hidden strength of ancient female figures – all while providing concrete steps for listeners to make immediate change. These aren't just conversations. They're bridges built between opposing worlds, lifelines for those feeling lost, and ammunition for those fighting to preserve their traditions while navigating modern reality. Subscribe to weekly episodes that reject both empty spirituality and heartless analysis. Instead, discover perspectives that unite the head and heart – leaving you not just moved, but ready to move.
