About this episode

This week's Muse is Farah Dagher, co-founder of Origin Circle, Beirut's first social wellness club.


What started as a conversation between two best friends on holiday quickly became a sanctuary for movement, recovery, and human connection. In this episode, Farah shares the full behind-the-scenes of launching Origin Circle with her co-founder Michelle - from diving in headfirst with no team, to navigating the unexpected realities of building a business in Lebanon.


Origin Circle has since become the most talked-about wellness club in Beirut, with a regional spotlight that grew even brighter after a collaboration with Alo Yoga ahead of the brand’s store opening. Farah reflects on the lessons, surprises, and intentional choices that brought the space to life.
