She’s a refugee from Afghanistan that grew up in America while balancing her Afghan heritage and blossoming in the American culture. Her success story is inspiring, commitment to civic duty admirable and advice for other young Afghans is important to hear. This enjoyable interview is one to share with the family.
Assimilation is a tough one for Afghans. So many think that if they assimilate it means they are giving up their heritage. That’s not the case at all. Italian Americans, Irish Americans, Japanese Americans etc. celebrate their culture while maintaining their American pride. We can be 2 things at once and have the best of both worlds! This episode talks about this topic at length.
Twin sisters, Zahra and Fatima Aziz share their personal story and feelings about Zahra’s courageous coming out journey of facing her loved ones with the reality that she’s a lesbian and how it affected Fatima and their family.

Glad to be back! Glad I didn’t cancel this podcast! I talk about why I took an extended break and why I almost gave up on the Afghan community, again. I also talk a little about life in the last 6 months: the global pandemic, protests, riots, stress, how we are going to get through this crazy time!
This episode covers how, culturally, Afghans have a constant sense of guilt and how this guilt is unhealthy, limiting and keeping you away from your full potential.
This episode addresses being Afghan and dating in America, how our families handle that, how they should, having more than one bf/gf and virginity. I go out on a limb in this episode and openly share of my own personal experiences in an effort to help others feel more comfortable.
The strong Afghan traditions, unfortunately have created an environment of duality and an intolerance for individuals to live their truth and be their true selves. This episode addresses that problem and how to reconcile the issue.
This episode covers a lot of what American-Afghans go through. I share through my own personal stories as well as include interviews with other Afghans. It’s time we start talking about things we typically sweep under the rug. This episode will give you a taste of what to expect this season.
