Welcome to the 1st episode of 'The Full Circl Podcast'
Today we're joined by Amateur Boxer, Law Student and Future Leader, Aya Hijazi.
The very first episode sees Aya join Lewis from the Circl Team in the studio. The discussion explores Aya's story, with a great focus on the challenges of being such a young and underrepresented demographic in the sporting world. This is coupled up with powerful insights on how such struggles can be overcome, as well as advice for any other young people looking to chase their ambitions.
The Full Circl Podcast takes a closer look into the lives and stories of the aspirational young people who have graduated from our programmes here at Circl.
A range of powerful themes are explored throughout each episode such as the powerful stories of these Future Leaders, their future aspirations, and their takes on the struggles of being a young person in the modern world.
