During December we are republishing a few of our most popular episodes. This week Sue Stockdale talks to Palwasha Siddiqi, whose early childhood experiences as a refugee shaped her interest in helping others to maximise their potential.Palwasha was born and raised between Afghanistan and Pakistan. When she was seven her family fled the civil war in Afghanistan and became refugees in Pakistan where they lived for over a decade. They moved back to Afghanistan after the American invasion in 2003 and it was then that she was introduced to a non-profit organization that helped her secure a full-time scholarship to attend university in the United States.The force behind making this move to the US was her passion for education and desire to live a life guided by her own values and wishes. After obtaining her bachelor's and MBA degrees Palwasha went on to join American Express in New York. Seven years later she transferred to London where she now works.This episode was first broadcast on 16th June 2021 as episode 48.Connect with Palwasha Siddiqi on LinkedIn
