In the third episode of STFH I am joined by Sophia Hassan, a South Asian Glaswegian, who works as a Personal Trainer and trainee Cognitive Behavioural Therapist.

I first came in to contact with Sophia during my first year of practising Ramadan in 2021. Sophia agreed to do an Instagram Live chat with me, all to do with fasting during Ramadan and how this affects physical health and performance.

In this episode, entitled, 'Be the change you want to see', Sophia and I cover:

• barriers to exercise for South Asian women, and Personal Trainers of colour
• modesty vs gym-clothing
• CBT vs PT
• ...and Sophia questions me about my experiences of white-man-Ramadan!

Thank you so much Sophia for sparing me the time to record this episode, and I really hope that we can do this again soon, maybe even on your own podcast!
