Maryam Darwish’s story of leadership and dreams.

There are a lot of stereotypes out there about Arab Woman.

We in the West see what we want to see.

And many Arabs perpetrate the stereotypes they have been raised into like, women raise the kids men go out and work.

But every now and then you meet someone who makes you sit back and say WOW.

Maryam Darwish is one of those people!

A leader.

Inspirational.

Determined.

Humble.

A proud Emirati.

Maryam was married at 12 years of age and at 13 became a mother!

Today Maryam is the mother of 4 children and a grandmother!

Maryam took on her role as mother without a regret!

Years later Maryam took her passion for cars to the extreme and became a mechanic and today she is also back at school getting her high school diploma!

All this in the midst of passing on the traditions of Emirati culture to her children!

An amazing story that is inspiration to anyone who has a dream and thinks it is impossible!
