Faith, Family, and a Fresh Start with Afzal Ali

From Resettling Doubts to Rebuilding Dreams: Afzal's Journey to Belonging. In this episode, Afzal Ali shares what it really feels like to leave a successful life behind and start over in a new country. He speaks candidly about growing up in a huge, tight-knit family in India, his early struggles studying in London, and why he ultimately chose Australia for a fresh start.

From food delivery jobs to job rejections, housing challenges to school enrollment battles, Afzal walks us through the highs andheavy lows of migration.

At his lowest, he almost gave up.

But with patience, faith, and resilience, his story took a powerful turn and today, he’s building a new life in Newcastle, Australia.

This is a story of hope, hardship, and the light at the endof the tunnel.
