In a world where everyone wants to be heard, Kanwal listens.
Kanwal Ahmed was already a household name in Pakistan when she launched her web talk show ‘Conversations with Kanwal’. The show was a massive hit- not because of any celebrity presence, but because of the stories.
Raw, unfiltered stories of everyday people and their struggles. Stories that need to be heard, stories that make you cry, stories that compel you to think.
Kanwal probably knows that just telling these stories may be seen as an act of defiance. But that doesn’t stop her. She continues to raise taboo issues women face- like dowry, domestic abuse, colorism, living with disabilities, gaslighting, and even marital rape. Kanwal is intent on building the sisterhood and to create safe spaces for women to talk- one story at a time.
With a little help from her fans, she is back with her Season 3! Listen to her on our latest episode as she talks about her own story- her journey as a leader, her own struggles as a new immigrant in Canada and her message to women content creators.
