In this episode Pashtana talks at length about her childhood as a Refugee, about how her father had to fight the society in order to give her the education she deserved and also tells me about what keeps her going in staying courageous, brave and a powerhouse that she is, as she continues to speak up to the international media about the situation Afghanistan.
She is an inspiration to me and I cannot emphasis enough on amplifying the voices, works and intentions of women like Pashtana in the world.
