Author interviews International Podcaster

Dr Shahnaz’s podcasts are about a life-changing journey of starting, sustaining, and learning from the habit of reading.

ANDREW: I see you have a great many hidden talents...tell us about your career and how you manage to intertwine your very busy life with being a podcaster.

ANDREW: Do you remember your Eureka moment when you thought about starting a podcast? And who you would like to book first.

SHAHNAZ: Oh Goodness! It’s funny, because when I started my podcast, I didn’t even think that doing an interview was something that would happen.

I might have wished it secretly, but I just wanted to share my journey and I just started the podcast. Somewhere after the first couple of months, I thought, I would like to get my feet wet with getting used to interviewing.

ANDREW: Who influenced you the most with books?

SHAHNAZ: If you mean an author, I grew up with Enid Blyton. The Amelia Jane series and my favourite, The Famous Five. In Dubai, at school, I felt a sense of book peer pressure.

I was with girls who read a lot, and I felt the need to keep up. So, I read the classics with them also and books just came naturally to me. It became a part of me, like nothing else really can.
