About the Book
A NATIONAL BESTSELLER
The trajectory of Zahra Al-harazi’s life defies expectations. In this electrifying book that travels from a small village in Yemen to a small town in Minnesota to a Calgary suburb, Al-harazi describes surviving two civil wars; her years as a young, stay-at-home immigrant mother with little education; and how she became one of Canada’s most successful businesswomen.
Navigating two worlds, Al-harazi has struggled to find her own way between East and West, religion and belief, freedom and obligation, family and desire, love and honour, despair and gratitude, war and war again. With warmth and courageous honesty, she recounts how it is only through gratitude and persistence that we can find happiness and the courage to build the life we want.
Critical Praise
"It takes a special kind of person to practice relentless adaptation, something I’ve been studying for years. After reading Zahra’s very personal story about surviving two civil wars, nurturing a young family on her own in a new country, and finding the courage to build an award-winning business, she has What It Takes and we all need to hear to lead the way on our own terms." — —Amber Mac, Bestselling author, speaker and entrepreneur
