S1E32: Finding Freedom from Oppression with Fizz Shah - Part 1

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.
