Episode description

In this episode, we talk to Sairan Aqwari who achieved the American dream by coming from Iraq to build a career in the United States as a successful engineer. It wasn’t an easy transition coming from the Middle East and building a life in the United States, but with dedication and hard work she was able to find here what she had always dreamed about—personal and professional success. Then, suddenly, in midlife, she realized that the messages she and other women were getting about reinventing themselves were negative. She says: “I was navigating feelings of stagnation, questioning whether I was truly living up to my full potential. It was daunting to imagine reinventing myself at a stage in life when many believe it’s too late.” Determined to quiet the negative voices and to help other women do the same, she began coaching women. Her goal is to help them define their passion, recognize their potential, and make an income in their new chapters. You will enjoy our lively conversation with practical tips on how to silence the naysayers, unlock your hidden talents, and begin again.
