Zahra Al-Harazi is now known as a bold entrepreneur, an outspoken advocate for human potential, and a globally recognized speaker. Her voice carries weight — in boardrooms, on international stages, and in the lives of those she moves. But that voice wasn’t always loud, or confident, or even welcome. When she immigrated to Canada in 1996, she arrived with no higher education, no connections, and no blueprint of what to do next. A young mother of three, she felt overwhelmed, invisible, and completely unsure of her place in the world. But slowly — and sometimes clumsily with missteps and persistence and more than a few moments of unexpected humour — she began to speak up. And in doing so, she discovered not just her voice, but her purpose.
