NŪR is a mindfulness and meditation app tailored for the Arab world. It offers culturally relevant meditations in several Arabic dialects to allow a deeper personal experience. Its mission is to offer easily accessible tools for daily mental health support

After leaving her job at CNN International, Shahira tackles the tricky and challenging task of creating meditation in all the diverse, beautiful, and varied dialects of the Arabic language.  We speak about how meditation can be life-changing, as well as an even more enriching experience of meditating in your own language and dialect, takes us through the experience of how she's a non-tech founder of a tech application.
