In this episode, I share a very powerful conversation with Ariana Abawe.  She is the Founder of Ariana Magazine.  Ariana's main goal with the magazine is to give a voice to the voiceless and amplify their voices. As an Afghan, she aims to showcase the Afghan community and the Afghan culture to the world at large.  She also highlights the stories of the talented individuals there are in Afghan communities, from artists, actors, entrepreneurs, writers, fashion designers and much more.

Ariana is based in the UK and also hosts various Afghan cultural events.  She strives to show the positive side of Afghanistan.  She is breaking all barriers.  She is a female founder of a very successful magazine and she shows non-Afghans the connections to Afghanistan.  She reminds everyone of how rich our culture actually is.

We also discuss her career path and she gives some tips on how to pursue a career in journalism. She shares her own inspiring experiences of how she fell in love with journalism.   In her own words, she gives a voice to the voiceless.
