Have you ever known that something wasn’t for you? Whether it was a new job or a new course, you just knew deep down that you weren’t meant to be there? That’s how today’s guest, Amna Akhtar, the Founder of non-profit organisation, GirlDreamer felt when she dropped out of university after just one week. 


Feeling pressured by her immigrant parents to take a more traditional path, Amna followed her heart and left her nursing degree behind... aiming to help people in a different way. 


In today’s inspiring episode powered by Shopify, Amna shares how her environment shaped her life, the issues with today’s toxic hustle culture as well as the value of listening to your inner voice to guide you to new heights.
