Thank you all, I have to run! We are getting ready to start the show in St. Cloud, MN with Governor Mark Dayton! Today is the first day a Somali-American is being honored. They have declared Saado Ali Warsame Day today!! History is being made for our beloved hero who was murdered in Mogaadishu...
When I travel back home, I go tourist style...curious and on vacation. I love every city. The people are great. I really enjoyed LA, Berbera!
Hargeisa is a every large city, I really like Somali smaller towns and beaches. OMG, Borama is amazing and welcoming. Such intelligent, bright students...
I don't believe in regrets because everything that has happened in my life has made me the person I am today. However, I wish I never gave up my media career earlier in life, but this is the perfect timing too,.
YES, they both exist. The worst part of media or entertainment is always the sexism as a woman. Alhamidullah, I am older now and I could care less and will put people who are out of line in check! You have to own your identity or else you will be owned!!
ironically, I never really faced racism...
To be honest with you, I did not think I could stand on my feet after going thru difficult times, but I realized once you have HOPE you are on the journey to better life. I am very optimistic about Somalia because I see how people live back home. There are a few bad apples, but majority of our...
I am always amazed how many people know me when I travel back home! I really feel honored that the locals feel hope for their country
after they see our shows. I am grateful to Allah (SWT) for connecting me to my country and people. People back home accept me because they see my heart is pure...
I want to continue building and work on creating great content in this digital age. I am excited that this work, insha'Allah, will out live me and be historical to watch for my children and their children.
I would love change the hearts of our people...to stop focusing on tribalism and start rebuilding together. Every part of our great country
needs rebuilding in education, healthcare and most importantly, the mind!!
Thank you brother! I used to think divorce was a stigma, but I realized being in a bad relationship is more of a stigma. Things happen in life and how we deal with them determines who we become. Divorce is very hard and should never to be taken lightly, however, children must always come first...
Growing up I always wanted to learn about Somalia and never saw a TV that shared our country from the perspective of a diaspora returnee. So, Integration is bringing us back to our roots and loving who we are and where we come from. I wanted to create what I yearned for growing up
My role model is Les Brown. He is an amazing motivational speaker who inspired to follow my dreams at the lowest point of my life when I was going thru a divorce
I studied Journalism in university, but gave up the career when I could not make a decent living. I worked in corporate, but realized my love for media never died. I went back to school and started training all over again 3 years ago. I love it and would not trade it for anything
I am not into politics. More of a humanitarian. I stand up for principles and what social causes I can impact, never focus on politics.
More can be done when you impact people through inspiration than politics
I never looked at going back home as a culture clash. I believe people connect no matter what if there is kindness. As long as diaspora are friendly and kind to locals, there is no problem. Many locals complain diaspora act stuck up. I was suprised when in Mogadishu that locals were shocked I...
I never plan anymore since I put my trust in Allah (SWT). I do work I love and see where it leads me. I believe in working hard and seeing the fruits of your labor.
