Ep. 157 – Unchartered Discussions - Shahira Hemeda

The conversation with Shahira continues to unchartered waters… Understanding the true benefits of meditation. Dispelling myths and misunderstandings and explaining how you can integrate meditation practices into your day-to-day life.

About Shahira:

I am half Egyptian, half Moroccan. Born and raised in Morocco until I was 16. I’m currently a digital nomad - live between London and Lisbon. Travel/ work a lot from the ME.

I’ve developed a strong passion for social impact projects over the past few years.

Motto: “Earn your success based on service to others, not at the expense of others.” – H. Jackson Brown Jr.


I’m an adept of mindfulness and meditation. I decided to quit my corporate job and devote my time to spreading mindfulness and meditation to the Arab world and its diaspora. My goal is to serve the gap in mental wellbeing and positively impact the region.

I started my career working for the award winning advertising agency Fred & Farid as well as L’Oréal working for their luxury brand Lancôme. I later moved to London to further pursue my career, and joined CNN International Commercial working within their Middle East and Africa team.


NUR is a mindfulness and meditation app tailored for the Arab world. We are solving the lack of online support for mental wellbeing and mindfulness techniques in Arabic speaking countries. We offer culturally relevant content and delivered in a variety of Arabic dialects. NŪR’s mission is to positively impact the MENA region and offer easily accessible tools for daily mental health support and wellbeing.
