The Sara Shabana Show
There are two main reasons why we don’t take risks and design a life that brings us joy: 1) We don’t believe our dreams are really possible, or 2) We don’t know what we should do to get there. I am Sara Shabana and I am here to provoke you to design your own life, dig deeper into your curiosities, and get inspired from those who created a life they love. This podcast is all about realizing the possibilities, and learn real tactics and strategies on how you can design a life that brings you joy.
