What does life as a woman or girl look like in your country / city / town / village? Any issues / challenges / exciting milestones?

Life is a challenge in my country. For women it is a battle. You have to protect yourself from everything. You are considered to be free to choose whatever you like but it's not like that at all. You are not free. You are caged in this narrow minded society.

What would you like the world to know about YOU? What life experience, challenge or achievement do you want to share?

I believe I am a fighter. I love my life. I want to explore life. I have been working for social issues, creating awareness through my radio shows and I try to inspire people by talking about little things that matter. I try to tell people that its about their life and 'their choices'. It's about 'you'.

What are you most passionate about and what are you doing with that passion?

I am doing radio shows. I love to write as well. I'm very passionate about telling people to get better everyday. I'm working on different projects as well.

How have the women and girls around you helped you to get to where you are today?

Family. My family helped me a lot to get confident. My mother and my sister especially. I love my family for loving me and giving me strength to fight this society.
