In this episode, Zahra Rose shares what it was like growing up in Hastings, UK where she endured racial abuse at a young age and how those very experiences made her resilient and work harder. She opens us about the reason why she started wearing the hijab, and how her social media journey shifted from fashion & make-up into advocating for representation, safer spaces and visibility for Muslim women in marketing campaigns, advertisements, and especially sports!   After breaking her leg in a skiing accident, Strava approached her to do the New York Marathon which she said yes to despite not being able to walk at the time! It's the perfect episode so watch as the new year is just around the corner so get cozy and press play!   💡Izzy Does It is free to watch and if you believe it brings value, please consider helping us keep the show going by contributing to the bank account below.   BIBD: 00-001-01-0086040   The amount can range from the least transferable amount (BND1.01) to however much you are willing and capable.
