Sage Takes Thyme | Weekly Podcast

WE’RE BACK! We’re “Sage Takes Thyme” — a podcast where two friends talk about the hard stuff, the heart stuff, and everything in between.

🎙️ A @womena podcast, hosted by Elissa Freiha (@freiha) and Amira Salah-Ahmed (@amiralx).

This season, we’re expanding the table, bringing in more voices, more lived realities, and more difficult questions shaping the Arab world and its diaspora today.

Season 3 drops September 15 on YouTube and all streaming platforms. Comment “Notify me” and we’ll send you the link so you don’t miss the first episode. 🔔

And let us know what topics you’re expecting from us this season in the comments. 🌿 (We read Every. Single. One!)

A big thank you to everyone who helped bring this season to life. 🤍
