Standing Tall Without Heels

Rasha Alajouz’s newest book showcases heartwarming stories of inspiration, perseverance, and dedication in the lives of many women from all backgrounds throughout the Middle East and North Africa. Many motivational books offer tips and tricks based on one person’s experience. Instead, Rasha has conducted personal interviews and compiled the experiences of women from fields including finance, science, culinary arts, design, translation, and more. She brings the challenges and triumphs of these women into a collection complete with advice, quotes, and self-reflection opportunities. This book is the culmination of over 20 years spent working toward Rasha’s vision of inspiring positive change by guiding women and youth to pursuing their dreams and finding their “why”.“If I can touch the life of one person, two people, ten people, then my work is worth it.” -Rasha Alajouz
