Podcast: In Conversation with Samra Zafar | From Child Bride to Best Selling Author
In this episode of the Podcast, I’m sitting down with Samra Zafar. Samra was 16 years old when she was forced to marry a stranger. She was forced to move from United Arab Emirates to Canada and for YEARS she was isolated, humiliated, and assaulted. But the whole time…she was planning her escape. After years of abuse while living with her husband and in-laws, she managed to complete high school and save money from a child care business to attend University. She graduated at the TOP of her class and left her abusive husband. In 2019, she released her best-selling memoir “A Good Wife”. Samra is sharing her story on how she went from child bride to businesswoman and human rights activist. She is proof that no matter how difficult the circumstances, you can overcome them and create the life you always dreamed about.
