My amazing guest today is Soumaya Khalifa. Her two worlds are Egypt and the US.
Soumaya specializes in intercultural communication, leadership development, religion in the workplace, corporate diversity, equality, inclusion and belonging.
In our conversation, she tells us the story of her family's journey from Egypt to the States and how it all started. Along the way we talk about what it has been like living as an American Muslim and how she decided to start wearing a headscarf. We talk about islamophobia in the States and in the world in general. We discuss Soumaya's love of both of her worlds, her love of food, particularly Egyptian food, which has a special place in her heart.
Soumaya is a very powerful business woman, a lovely and kind person, a loving wife and a mother. This is such a wonderful, open-hearted conversation and I am very grateful to Soumaya for sharing her beautiful life story with me.
I am sure that you will enjoy listening to this story.
