In this episode of the Girl UpRising Podcast, I sit down with Kalesha Shadaii, A courageous 24-year-old who shares her journey of rising above depression, suicidal thoughts, and the pressure of young adulthood. After leaving her hometown to pursue her master’s degree, she also stepped into entrepreneurship, proving that it’s possible to create new beginnings even after life’s darkest moments.

This conversation is raw, inspiring, and a reminder that you’re never alone in your struggles and that choosing to keep going is an act of power.

✨ Topics we cover:

• Navigating depression and finding resilience
• Taking the leap to move away from home
• Balancing grad school and running businesses
• Advice for young women learning to believe in themselves

If you’ve ever felt like giving up, her story will remind you that storms do pass, and purpose can be found on the other side.

***Please excuse the audio. We will do better next time. Her story was too fire for me not to share it.***
