If you've ever listened to the New to Canada podcast, you understand the value of hearing other newcomers' stories and experiences. It's the reason why I started this show.

Moving to a new country can get TOUGH… and just knowing that we aren't alone in our struggles can be so healing.

Today's guest has spent her incredible journalism career shining a light on the stories of immigrants in Canada. In this episode, she opens up about some of the most inspiring people she's had the privilege to meet, and the powerful lessons they've shared along the way.

Introducing: Baisakhi Roy. Editor of Canadian Immigrant.

Stories that you don't want to miss:

• A senior veteran journalist from Mexico and the workplace discrimination she experienced.
• A young professional from Morocco who struggled to navigate the English language barrier when building her career.
• A 13-year-old wracked with trauma, escaping Liberian civil war, who now mentors youth via the Yo Bro Yo Girl Youth Initiative.
• A 3-time Nobel Peace Prize nominee who lost 3 daughters due to Israeli shells and has dedicated his life to working for global peace.
• And many more!

PLUS, Baisakhi tells us about her own experience moving to Canada from India in 2010 with a 4.5-year-old - and how precious mentorship and a supportive husband were key to her settlement.

Come say hi! I'll be at the Canadian Immigrant Fair in Toronto, this Friday, June 27 at the MTCC - hosting a table and recording the podcast live. It's totally FREE to attend, so grab your spot and join the fun!
