About this listen
"You're not like other girls, you're not pretty... you look... interesting."
These are the words Syrian-Palestinian model Lana Albeik (born and based in the Emirates) has heard many times throughout her career. In today's episode she shares her story, alongside her advice on overcoming naysayers, nastiness, and prejudice.
Through her career Albeik has combined activism, heritage, and fashion in ways that defy stereotypes. Having worked for Elle, Vogue, Burberry and others, she became a muse for brands while never losing her strong sense of self.
This unreleased episode, recorded in early 2023, was delayed by technical issues. Now resolved, we're excited to finally share it with you.
