What's a comfort zone?

Inspirational  journalist and friend of WABJ, Charlene White, once said to us in a talk: 'as a journalist, you should travel. Get out of your area!' - and it couldn't be more fitting for our two guests in this episode.


Shamaàn Freeman-Powell and Zahra Warsame both took the admiral plunge to take their dreams and inspirations far away from their homes, and share their inspiring journeys so far, no filter included.
