In this clip from my indepth interview with SAMRA ZAFAR, she talks about when her marriage broke down and why she had a hard time leaving her nightmare situation. Watch Samra’s FULL inspirational interview of overcoming being a forced child bride and living her life now on her own terms.
In this episode of the Podcast, I’m sitting down with Samra Zafar. Samra was 16 years old when she was forced to marry a stranger. She was forced to move from United Arab Emirates to Canada and for YEARS she was isolated, humiliated, and assaulted. But the whole time…she was planning her escape. After years of abuse while living with her husband and in-laws, she managed to complete high school and save money from a child care business to attend University. She graduated at the TOP of her class and left her abusive husband. In 2019, she released her best-selling memoir “A Good Wife”. Samra is sharing her story on how she went from child bride to businesswoman and human rights activist. She is proof that no matter how difficult the circumstances, you can overcome them and create the life you always dreamed about.
