A big shout out to our listeners from all around the globe including the USA, UK, Canada, Zimbabwe, Mongolia, Japan, Australia and so many more countries…hello!

Love love love having you join us. I’m thinking about you and hope you’re doing alright out there.

My fearless friends, with so much uncertainty in the world, it’s helpful to hear true, inspiring stories from people who have overcome so much.

Am excited to welcome my guest today. Maryam Monsef has a fascinating story and so much wisdom to share.

Let me tell you a little about her from her long and impressive bio.

Maryam Monsef is a globally recognized feminist, leader, and changemaker. And the Founder and CEO of ONWARD - a company supporting leadership development for emerging and existing leaders - with a special focus on women.

An Afghan-Canadian activist who comes from a long line of strong and resilient women and who, against all odds, escaped war and survived poverty and displacement.

She rose from refugee to community organizer, to Cabinet Minister where she drove social and economic justice files for the Government of Canada at home and abroad.

Listen until 29:02 to hear Maryam talk about being shaped by events in her childhood.

“Throughout my childhood, you know, I have this image of in the evenings everybody huddled around the radio. Waiting for news that the war was over, that it was safe to go home, or it was safe to go outside, and that people who were missing family members who had disappeared were waiting to hear their names on the radio.

So being 10 years old, me feisty, you know, opinionated, encouraged to do big things and to lead was also shaped by and trying to process. This big political stuff that was having real impacts in our lives. So it's a testament to the love and the nurturing that we received from my family and my extended family that we turned out okay.

Because looking back I was like, oh, that must have been a really hard time to be 10.”
