This episode of Something to Consider explores the underestimated strength behind a founder’s journey. Rama Kayyali, co-founder of Little Thinking Minds, transformed a small idea into a platform reaching half a million students across the Arab world. Along the way came setbacks, pivots, and the quiet fight to preserve language and identity in classrooms that often overlooked their worth.
It is a reminder that failure can shape us more than success — and that the strength we tend to overlook in ourselves often becomes the most powerful. I hope you will find something to consider.
