Founder & CEO of Our Place, Shiza Shahid, on Growing Up in Pakistan, Creating the Always Pan, and Finding Your Purpose

Shiza Shahid is the face (and brains) behind Our Place, the cookware brand responsible for one of Instagram’s most beloved products (the viral Always Pan). But Shiza, who was born and raised in Pakistan, has been an entrepreneur and activist long before Our Place took off. In 2013, she became the co-founder of the Malala Fund, a nonprofit formed to advocate for girls’ education after Shiza’s close friend, Malala Yousafzai, was shot by the Taliban on her way home from school. On this episode of The Everygirl Podcast, Josie and Alaina sit down with Shiza to discuss how business and advocacy can (and should!) go hand in hand, and all the lessons she’s learned on her journey.Use code "EVERYGIRL" to get 15% off your Our Place order (we recommend The Always Pan!).
