    Noor Molvi created the jewelry line, NOORNOIR, after years of dreaming about being a designer and entrepreneur. She has always been a creative and visual person. After working a few different jobs in the fashion industry, She realized the only way she could truly satisfy my longing for creating beautiful design was by doing it on her own time and in her own way.

NOORNOIR is a collection of elegant, timeless jewelry handmade and designed by its namesake owner in Los Angeles, California. Often mixing high-quality gold pieces with natural materials such as pearls and aquamarines, every stunning creation feels simultaneously classic and one-of-a-kind, evoking found treasures washed up from the sea.

  8. The Life Threatening Effects of Stress with Survivor Zoha Hussain

    The Life Threatening Effects of Stress with Survivor Zoha Hussain

    My name is Zoha Hussain and I was born and raised in Boston, Massachusetts. I currently live in London where I work at the University College of London Hospitals as a Clinical Systems Senior Analyst. I have always been inspired to create positive change, whether that is by improving healthcare in low-income areas, mentoring high school children, embracing my passion for dance or using my journey as a survivor to empower other Muslim women. Muslim women face abuse or abusive behaviors in all aspects of life- be it religious, social, cultural, interpersonal, or domestic.  Cultural, societal and religious stigma around abuse has planted immense pressure on South Asian Muslim women to remain silent, afraid and simply helpless. Just one hand, one similar experience can pull one out of darkness towards an imaginable light of hope.  My hope is to build a community of young women who will support, strengthen and empower one another to fight against any adversity, any inner or external battles we experience in life. Awareness and understanding begin from within. Together, we can empower one another to move through the silence. Contact information: zohafatima91@gmail.com. Listen to Zoha talk about Growing up with financial struggles in the Desi Community  Surviving an abusive relationship  Going through a traumatic health scare at 25  Losing her memory  Rebuilding her life  Learning how to put yourself first   Follow Her Zindagi on Instagram: @her.zindagi   Find the host, Maheen, on Instagram: @maheen93   If you or someone you know would make a good guest on the podcast or if you have any questions/comments/concerns please email herzindagipodcast@gmail.com
