About this episode
The episode discusses the tragic murder of photographer and influencer Sania Kahn by her estranged husband, highlighting her life and struggles as a first-generation Pakistani-American woman.
On July 18, 2022, 29 year old Sania Kahn was gunned down in her Chicago apartment by her estranged husband. We...do not have the words for what a freaking BADASS Sania was. She was a photographer and influencer who shared with the world not just her incredible art, but also her struggles of being a first generation Pakistani-American woman trying to live up to the expectations of her parents while at the same time living our her dreams. This could have been a 49 part 274 hour long series based just on the number of friends who LINED UP to share stories of how wonderful and generous and hilarious AND TRULY LITERALLY BRILLIANT Sania was. We have nothing to say here about the piece of S**T killer who murdered her in her prime, so you'll have to listen to the episode to hear us scream about him there. Ugh. OK, we got this, fam!
