When Tahera was in 5th grade, it was post 9/11, she was shocked by the horrible media coverage about Muslims. She also couldn’t wrap her head around why there were no reporters on the screen who looked even remotely like her. Fast forward a few years, and Tahera is the first of (hopefully many!) hijabi TV reporters in the United States!

In this episode, Tahera tells us her story, full of heartbreak and rejection, but also happy tears and beautiful stories. She shares her hijab journey as a woman who wanted to be on the screen. Lastly, she gives us tips on how to achieve something, even if it has never been done before.

I hope you all enjoy this episode!
