Malala Yousafzai is the youngest Nobel Peace Prize laureate, education activist, and survivor of a Taliban assassination attempt at age fifteen. This conversation explores the gulf between icon and identity—what happens when you're trying to figure out who you are while everybody has already decided for you. We discuss PTSD that surfaced years later, therapy she resisted, reconciling heritage with freedom, the crisis facing Afghan girls under gender apartheid, and why meaningful activism extends beyond social media. Through it all, she's redefining what courage actually looks like. Malala is vulnerable, honest, and profoundly human. And this conversation is a gift. Enjoy!

But now Malala has a new memoir out called “Finding My Way,” and she's ready to reintroduce herself. Today, she tells us about navigating ordinary life — like making friends at university, finding her personal style, going to parties and … falling in love. “Finding My Way” comes out on Oct. 21.The Modern Love team also wants to hear your questions about dealing with family during the holidays.

This week's episode is for the girls - fitting, since International Day of The Girl Child just passed by. We are joined by Malala Yousafzai, a Pakistani female education activist, who reminds us the importance of education, community, structure and balance for every girl, everywhere in the world. She gets real about the pressures and life differences in being Malala the activist vs Malala the woman. She also shares some (extremely peaceful) advice on dilemmas about a girl who built her family business from the ground-up, only to be pushed out, and another who believes her siblings hate her. It's thoughtful, peaceful and very for the girls

In this episode, Julia speaks with identical twins Maryam and Nivaal, who often lead together as one voice. They share how their approach to leading has evolved sometimes converging, sometimes diverging and how they balance respect for each other's strengths with the need to make joint decisions. Maryam & Nivaal were part of Women Emerging expedition for Global Changemakers in partnership with YouthtopiaThe conversation explores a central dilemma for leaders: if you never listen, you risk mistakes and isolation; if you listen to everyone, you risk paralysis. Maryam and Neval talk candidly about how they've learned to find the balance, from setting boundaries around feedback to recognising when to say no, and creating structures that make input meaningful rather than overwhelming. Listen to this episode to explore how to find your own voice as a leader while still creating space for others and how to balance inclusion with clarity when making tough decisions. About the guest: Maryam and Nivaal Rehman became activists when they were eight years old, and started inspiring girls in their village in Pakistan to continue their education, when poverty was leading them to quit school and work instead. The now 18-year-old twins have since worked in their local and global community for causes including girls' education in Pakistan and around the world, climate justice, gender equality and inclusivity. They even have their own non-profit, The World With MNR, that uses advocacy, storytelling and development to take action and inspire others to do the same.They are continuing their activism through volunteering, traveling and sharing their experiences through their social media and their YouTube channel, The World With MNR. They've used their platform to cover several events — from the Social Good Summit in New York City, to the Girl Up Leadership Summit in Washington, D.C. — and interview global figures, including Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, Nobel Prize laureate Malala Yousafzai, and Madame Christine Lagarde, President of the European Central Bank. Their activism has led to recognition in media and several awards, including the Governor General's Caring Canadian Award (now the Sovereign's Medal for Volunteers). Most recently, they released their documentary on the status of girls' education in Pakistan, and held global screenings to spark further conversation and inspire audience members to take action themselves.

Today, Jay sits down with Malala Yousafzai to uncover the woman behind the global symbol of courage and education. From the very start, Jay sets the tone with an intention rooted in empathy, to help people not just know Malala, but understand her. Together, they revisit her extraordinary journey, from growing up in Pakistan’s Swat Valley under Taliban rule to surviving an assassination attempt at fifteen. Malala shares what it was like to wake up in a hospital far from home, and how she slowly began to realize that the world had already decided who she was before she could decide for herself. As the conversation unfolds, Malala opens up about the emotional aftermath of her survival, the years spent trying to live up to the image of bravery the world created for her while quietly struggling with fear, trauma, and loneliness. She reflects on how therapy helped her begin to process the pain she had long suppressed, and how rediscovering humor, friendship, and love became essential parts of her healing. Malala also talks about her marriage, her insecurities after the attack, and the importance of learning to love herself before fully believing that someone else could. Her honesty reveals a side rarely seen, that even those who inspire millions still wrestle with doubt and self-acceptance. Malala and Jay explore what courage truly means, not as a public act of heroism, but as a quiet, daily choice to keep going. She reflects on her mission to ensure education for every girl, the ongoing fight for women’s rights in Afghanistan, and how real change begins with local voices and global solidarity. Through her words, Malala reminds us that strength and softness can coexist, that healing is never linear, and that every person has the power to turn pain into purpose. In this interview, you'll learn: How to Stay Brave When You’re Afraid How to Heal From Trauma With Time and Therapy How to Find Yourself Beyond What the World Expects How to Rebuild Confidence After Losing It How to Create Change Through Education How to Love Yourself After Feeling Unworthy How to Redefine Courage in Everyday Life How to Keep Hope Alive in Dark Times How to Be the Voice for Those Who Can’t Speak No matter what you’ve been through, your story isn’t over, it’s still being written every single day. Healing doesn’t happen all at once, and courage isn’t about never breaking down; it’s about finding the strength to rise again, even when you feel unsure.

I was 15 years old and I did not know who I wasMadina Maishanu speaks to Malala Yousafzai, the global education activist, about the public life that has defined her, and her search for her own identity. In a deeply personal interview, Malala Yousafzai reveals the legacy of her teenage years - as the spirited girl who took on the Taliban and nearly lost her life, then the Nobel Prize-winning advocate for girls everywhere to go to school. People think they know you, she says, but I did not know who I was. Now, aged 28, she reveals the lasting impact on her mental health and how she's been helped by therapy and by friendship, putting the loneliness of her teens behind her.For Malala Yousafzai, the mission of her life remains ensuring every girl has the right to go to school, a goal that has driven her since she was a child growing up in Pakistan's Swat Valley. Critical of the ruling Taliban, she survived an assassination attempt at their hands before fleeing to England to continue her education, ultimately at Oxford University.

Welcome to A Change Question — a special mini-series from The Inner Game of Change.In each short, solo episode, I bring you one question worth sitting with — the kind that can spark both personal and professional shifts. Most of us believe change starts the moment we make a decision.But the truth is, a decision is only the promise — the act is the proof.In this episode, I explore the gap between deciding and doing — that shadowy space where many of our best intentions quietly stall.Through the stories of Kathrine Switzer, the first woman to run the Boston Marathon, and Malala Yousafzai, who turned conviction into courage, I unpack what it really takes to turn resolution into motion.We'll also look at what neuroscience tells us about why our brains reward decision-making — but not follow-through — and how to build the bridge from intent to impact.Because decisions without steps become drift.But decisions with steps become movement.And movement is what changes everything.Send us a textAli Juma @The Inner Game of Change podcast Follow me on LinkedIn

The Great Disarmament Part 13: Seeds of Peace. What does disarmament look like today? It may not be on the news. But it is happening—everywhere. In this final episode of the historical timeline, we trace disarmament from the early 2000s to the present. From gang-intervention programs to post-conflict organic farms, from library circles to peace walkers, we explore how peace is being built—not by treaties alone, but by people. Quietly, daily, defiantly. Weapons still exist. Wars are still waged. But in homes, classrooms, gardens, and songs The Great Disarmament is already underway. Featuring the voices of Malala Yousafzai, Mahatma Gandhi, Mother Teresa, Father Gregory Boyle, adrienne maree brown, and Arundhati Roy. Inspired by Emergent Strategy by adrienne maree brown, we reflect on how small acts—like composting, listening, or holding a moment of peace—are not peripheral. They are the strategy.

In this recap episode of the Wolff Peace series, host Avis Kalfsbeek explores Part Two of Robert Paul Wolff's Political Man and Social Man—The Individual and Society: Classical Images of Man. Through thinkers like Aristotle, Hobbes, Bentham, and Marx, we explore philosophical portraits of human nature that undergird political theory. Paired with peace warriors like Malala Yousafzai, Satish Kumar, Leymah Gbowee, and Arundhati Roy, we reflect on how our assumptions about “what people are like” shape everything from law to revolution.

In this episode of the Wolff Peace series, host Avis Kalfsbeek revisits Aristotle's enduring vision of the political life: one rooted in virtue, participation, and civic education. But with that vision came exclusion—women, slaves, and foreigners were barred from the polis. Enter Malala Yousafzai, who defied a Taliban bullet to fight for girls' education and global citizenship. Through her story, we explore how access to learning becomes a form of political empowerment—and why it's essential to building peaceful societies.

Christiane Amanpour is chief international anchor of CNN's flagship global affairs program “Amanpour,” which airs weekdays on CNN International and nightly on PBS in the United States. She is also host of “The Amanpour Hour,” and is based in the network's London bureau. Beginning in 1983 as an entry-level assistant on the international assignment desk at CNN's headquarters in Atlanta, Amanpour rose through the organization becoming a reporter at the New York bureau, and later, the network's leading international correspondent. On the ground during the siege of Sarajevo, Amanpour exposed the brutality of the Bosnian War, reporting on the daily tragedy of life for civilians in the city. She was outspoken, calling out the human rights abuses, massacres and genocide committed against the Bosnian Moslems, later saying “There are some situations one simply cannot be neutral about, because when you are neutral you are an accomplice.” Throughout her time at CNN, Amanpour has secured exclusive interviews with global power players. In the wake of the September 11 attacks she was the first international correspondent to interview British Prime Minister Tony Blair, Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf and Afghan President Hamid Karzai. During the height of the Arab Spring she conducted an Emmy-winning interview with Libya's former leader ‘Colonel' Moammar Gadhafi, and she was also the last journalist to interview Egypt's President Hosni Mubarak just before he was deposed. In January 2014, Amanpour also exclusively broke the news of a dossier of testimony and photographs which alleged to show systematic torture of prisoners by government forces in Syria, evidence she used to confront Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev about his government's support for the Assad regime. In addition to her work as an anchor and reporter, Amanpour is an active rights campaigner. A board member of the Committee to Protect Journalists, the Centre for Public Integrity and the International Women's Media Foundation, she has used her profile to raise awareness of key global issues and journalists' rights. She has interviewed educational rights activist Malala Yousafzai for CNN on several occasions – bringing focus to her courage and international advocacy work. Amanpour has earned 16 News and Documentary Emmy Awards, four Peabody Awards, two George Polk Awards, three duPont-Columbia Awards and the IWMF's Courage in Journalism Award.

History doesn't belong to the women who waited. It belongs to the women who moved—the ones who refused to shrink, who challenged the rules, who stepped forward even when the world wasn't ready for them. From Rosa Parks to Malala Yousafzai, Harriet Tubman to Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the women who changed history all have one thing in common: they didn't wait for permission.In this episode of Unleashed, we break down the patterns of revolutionary women—their courage, their defiance, their refusal to accept the limits placed on them. And here's the truth: you don't have to lead a movement to make history. Sometimes, change starts with one small, decisive step.What would happen if you stopped waiting? If you took up space, used your voice, and moved anyway?Because history isn't made by the hesitant. It's made by the bold. And the next chapter? It's yours to write.With podcast microphone Love what you're hearing? Don't forget to subscribe to Unleashed and share this episode with someone who needs to hear it.

À l'occasion de la Journée internationale des droits des femmes, ce samedi 8 mars 2025, coup de projecteur sur le Pakistan. Selon un récent rapport d'une ONG locale, le taux national de condamnation pour viols et crimes d'honneur n'est que de 0,5%. Un chiffre choquant qui révèle les profondes lacunes du système judiciaire pakistanais lorsqu'il s'agit de rendre justice aux femmes victimes de violences. Les violences domestiques sont peu recensées, mais chaque semaine les médias locaux relaient de nombreuses affaires de viols, de crimes d'honneur, de violences domestiques et d'enlèvements à travers le pays. Parmi les initiatives mises en place il y a quelques années par les autorités pour soutenir les victimes, des postes de police au personnel exclusivement féminin. Reportage dans le commissariat pour femmes et entièrement féminin d'Islamabad.  De notre correspondante à Islamabad, Le commissariat 100% féminin d'Islamabad, au Pakistan, est niché derrière des murs bleu pastel surmontés de fils barbelés. Dans l'un des bureaux ce jour-là, une femme d'une trentaine d'années au visage caché derrière un masque médical, un voile rose sur les cheveux. « Oui madame, qu'est-ce qui vous amène ? », demande la policière. « Mon mari se comporte mal avec moi », répond la femme. « Que fait-il ? » « Il trouve toujours des raisons pour se disputer avec moi, il m'accuse de le tromper. » « Vous a-t-il déjà violentée ? » « Oui, plusieurs fois. » « Quand cela s'est produit dernièrement ? » « Il y a deux, trois jours. » « Voulez-vous déposer plainte, on devra alors faire votre examen médical ? » « Oui. » C'est la première fois que cette femme, mariée depuis cinq ans, mère d'un petit garçon âgé d'un an, sans emploi, franchit le pas du poste de police. « J'ai hésité avant de venir parce que j'ai peur que ma famille, que les gens posent ensuite des questions sur ce qu'il se passe et que cela m'amène des problèmes. » Après quelques minutes de conversation, elle revient sur sa décision de porter plainte : « Je veux que madame la policière parle à mon mari. Bien sûr, c'est mon époux, s'il change je ne porterai pas plainte contre lui. » À écouter aussiLes policières, héroïnes au PakistanCe revirement n'étonne pas la chef de ce poste de police, Misbah Shahbaz. Une cinquantaine de femmes se présentent chaque semaine. Dans 70% des cas, il s'agit de violences domestiques. « Il y a souvent des cas de violences répétées. Nous essayons alors vraiment de convaincre la femme pour qu'elle dépose une plainte. Mais le fait est que les femmes préfèrent généralement régler les choses à l'amiable, souvent parce qu'elles ont des enfants, à cause de la société et des normes sociales aussi. Et puis n'oublions pas le poids du traumatisme qu'elles ont après avoir subi des violences. Et puis il y a aussi les familles qui s'en mêlent. Les familles qui leur disent : “pardonne-lui, on va lui parler, on va le raisonner, il ne recommencera pas.” Dans ces conditions-là, c'est très compliqué de les convaincre de porter plainte. » Le poste de police 100% féminin est sans conteste un argument majeur pour inciter les femmes à signaler les violences et les abus dont elles sont victimes, mais la société patriarcale et conservatrice les maintiennent encore largement dans le silence. À lire aussiLa militante Malala Yousafzai de retour au Pakistan pour un sommet sur l'éducation des filles

Original Air Date: April 2, 2018In every life, there are defining moments when a person must decide whether to stand up for what is right or remain silent. At a young age, Pakistani activist Malala Yousafzai began boldly advocating for girls' access to education, which had been denied by the Taliban, an extremist Islamic group. The consequences were grave. In October 2012, the Taliban shot Malala point-blank in the head because of her outspoken beliefs. Miraculously, Malala survived and would go on to become the co-founder of the Malala Fund, which seeks to advocate and provide education to millions of young girls globally who are denied an education because of poverty, violence or tradition. Two years after the attack, Malala became the youngest person to receive the Nobel Peace Prize. Malala describes to Oprah the last moment she remembers before being shot. The young activist says her recovery taught her that "there is nothing greater than the love and the prayer of people." Later in the podcast, Malala's father, Ziauddin, joins the discussion and explains why he felt closest to God on the day Malala was attacked. Want more podcasts from OWN?
