This episode follows UAE National Day ๐ฆ๐ช, when everyone living in the UAE celebrates the independence of the country, 52 years ago.
This is a young country with a rich history and a vibrancy that is hard to beat. Thatโs why it's a pleasure today to have a rising Emirati star - and our youngest guest ever -, 15 year-old snowboarder Amenah Al Muhairi as our guest.
Yes, you heard that correctly, Amenah is an up and coming snowboarder hailing from the United Arab Emirates, a country where winter temperatures usually sit at a very nice 26 degrees celsius.
Amenah is the first Emirati snowboarder to represent the UAE in an international snowboarding competition which she did earlier this year at the World Junior Championships in Freestyle Snowboarding in New Zealand.
Amenah is also our first snowboarder on the podcast and also in a first for us, it is the first time that we have an athlete parent duo as guests as Amenahโs Mum Maya also joins us to discuss Amenahโs exciting future in sport.
We loved this chat so much that we covered a lot so weโve split this episode in two parts, with Part Two live now as well.
