#233: Maryam Fattahi Salaam - Finding Strength in Vulnerability
I find it funny when people outside of the Middle East ask about what it is like to live here. Questions like, 'Do the camels have a speed limit?' I have to admit the Middle East is one of the jewels of the World. So I wanted to bring a bit of this region to you by sharing some of the stories featuring remarkable women who live here.
Maryam Fattahi Salaam is Persian in origin, born and raised in Dubai and is one of the most successful entrepreneurs in fitness in the region. She is a coffee fan and a mother of three. She has dealt with many challenges in life in her professional and personal life. Maryam also shares with me a much deeper connection with those we love.
