From Pharmacist to Everest: Into The Depths Episode #9 - Manal Rostom
•
ROCKWOOL Group
Join Jonno Turner as he goes 'Into The Depths' with the first Egyptian woman to climb Mount Everest - Manal Rostom.
A genuine trailblazer, Rostom founded Surviving Hijab - a Women's-only community designed to spread awareness about the Hijab and the challenges women who wear it face. In 2015, Rostom gained international prominence when she became Nike's first veiled model, athlete, and coach.
We'll discover how Rostom was inspired by her community to reach the top of the world and how she overcome her greatest challenge to date, and she'll explain why she created the surviving hijab community. And she gives us a straight answer if she'd climb the world's highest mountain again.
