Episode 10 | Climbing Kilimanjaro & Ever...

Assia • The Mizaan
About this episode

In this episode, I am joined by Noor Al Mandhari, a remarkable social entrepreneur and athlete from Oman who shatters stereotypes and defied expectations by climbing Kilimanjaro and Everest Base Camp. 


Through her extraordinary journey, she shares the profound physical, mental, and spiritual lessons she gained. Discover how Noor's resilience, faith, and determination are not only reshaping perceptions but also breaking down barriers for hijabis in sports and society at large. 


I hope you find this conversation as uplifting as I did!
