From Tunisia to the UAE: My Journey to Becoming a Voice of Impact

There was a time when I stood at a crossroads, facing the unknown with nothing but determination and a passport in hand. In 2008, I left Tunisia with a heart full of ambition and landed in the UAE—a move that changed everything. This wasn’t just a relocation. It was the beginning of a transformation that shaped my mindset, career, and purpose.

Discovering My Drive: From Sales Struggles to Strategic Vision

Like many others, I began in sales. It was tough. Every rejection felt personal, and credibility wasn’t given—it had to be earned. But instead of backing down, I leaned into the challenge. I realized that sales wasn’t about pushing products; it was about building trust. That lesson became the foundation of everything I do: lead with empathy, listen with intent, and serve with authenticity.

A Love Affair with Tech & Storytelling

My journey took a new turn when I found myself drawn to technology—not just as a tool, but as a means to solve real-world problems. But alongside my work in tech, I carried another passion: storytelling. The ability to connect, inspire, and spark change through words became a powerful tool. It helped me humanize the digital world and connect with people on a deeper level.

Turning Pain into Power

One of the hardest chapters of my career was working in a toxic environment. It drained my energy and tested my self-worth. But it also lit a fire within me to seek alignment—with people, purpose, and passion. I walked away not bitter, but better. That choice opened doors to healthier spaces where I could grow and give without limits.

The Rise of the Influencer Within

I never set out to be an influencer. But as I began sharing my experiences—from boardrooms to scuba diving adventures—people started to resonate. They saw themselves in my struggles and found strength in my lessons. That connection turned into a community, and that community gave me a platform. Today, I use that platform not to impress, but to impact.

What Success Means to Me Now

Success isn’t a title or a paycheck. It’s waking up with purpose, showing up with authenticity, and knowing you’re adding value to someone’s day. It’s about balance—between growth and gratitude, ambition and peace.

A Business Model Built on Trust

Today, I partner with brands as a Key Opinion Leader (KOL), helping them tell their stories with honesty and impact. My services go beyond promotion; I focus on connection, strategy, and storytelling that converts. Whether it's influencer marketing, content creation, or motivational speaking, I bring both experience and heart to the table.

Final Words to My Younger Self… and to You

Take the risk. Speak your truth. Say no to anything that dims your light. Every setback has a lesson, and every lesson is a stepping stone. My journey from humble beginnings to becoming a voice in the digital world wasn’t a straight path, but it was worth every twist.
