In this episode, you’ll hear from Maryam Rasouli, a teenager from Afghanistan, speaking honestly about what comes after an education ban: the weight of despair, the stubbornness of hope, and the quiet strength that comes from not letting the restrictions take over her life. She also describes what it’s like to study for A Levels online with almost no resources, yet still refusing to give up.
