Pinch us...no really, please do, because we can't believe we are closing out another season of this podcast.
In our Season 2 finale, we can't help but to tear up and laugh simultaneously at the year we have just had. 2020 was a year of reckoning but it was the year that pushed us beyond what we could have ever imagined for ourselves and for this platform.
This podcast was birthed via a DM thread between Zaina and Dounya, both sharing their desire to create a platform for the stories that needed to be heard. Stories of women from all walks of life, triumphs and hardships, interlaced with silver linings and a few technical difficulties (technology will always be our worst enemy lol).
But here we are, two seasons later, over 260K downloads and an unbreakable digital sisterhood. In this episode, we share what we have learned thus far, the fears we have overcome, the power that lies within believing in yourself, how we have dealt with loss and trying our best to grow and thrive throughout it all.
How does one properly thank a community of women who have supported us since day one? How do we extend our gratitude to a sisterhood that has uplifted, motivated and continuously pushed us to keep going? At this moment, we don't know how to truly express our infinite love for our guests and listeners, but we want you to know how much you have impacted us in such immeasurable ways.
We truly hope to continue this journey with you all, but we have to share a bittersweet truth in this episode - please tune in all the way to the end. Just know that we will always be indebted to you all, and we truly hope this platform has brought you joy and the feeling of belonging to a sisterhood that can withstand anything.
