Malala Yousafzai was shot by Taliban gunmen when she was 15. She then became the youngest ever recipient of the Novel Peace Prize, but since then she’s been desperate to discover who she really is underneath the weight of the world’s expectations.In this chat with Fearne, Malala explains why skipping classes, smoking weed, and chasing bad boys have all played a part in finding herself, and why her own self-discovery has made her more passionate than ever about women having choices around education, work, and marriage.Malala talks through how she dealt with her own PTSD, and reframes what it means to be brave. She also explains the current situation for women and girls in Afghanistan, something that’s being called a ‘gender apartheid’, as well how we can all direct our anger in a positive way to help girls across the world.Malala’s memoir, Finding My Way, is out now.Support women and girls through <a href="https://malala.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Malala Fund</a>.If you liked this episode of Happy Place, you might also like:&nbsp;<a href="https://pod.fo/e/2dc795" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Good Girl Rebellion</a>&nbsp;<a href="https://pod.fo/e/27d879" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Florence Given</a>&nbsp;<a href="https://pod.fo/e/da9e1" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Caitlin Moran</a><hr> Hosted on Acast.
