Farah Nasser, anchor of Global News Hour and Global News at Noon, talks about her career, including her recent TEDx Talk, being a Muslim woman on television and declining a big TV offer in the US. She also opens up about family and her difficult road to motherhood, as well as her latest #momfail and #momwin. Also in this episode, I share my favourite productivity tips and a couple of book recommendations - of course!

When I met Farah and her coanchor Alan Carter in 2015, she was pregnant with her daughter...

...and she even let me sit in her spot at the anchor desk!

I did a behind-the-scenes interview with Farah and Alan that day: here are Part 1 & Part 2.

Thanks for the great chat, Farah! You can find Farah Nasser on Twitter and Facebook.

My recommended books in this episode:

The Tattooist of Auschwitz: A Novel by Heather Morris
