From Isolation in Canada to Belonging in Malaysia – The Saleh Story

In this in-depth conversation, I sit down with Will & Sana Saleh ‪@SalehFamily‬ the Canadian influencer family who made their dream of living in Malaysia a reality. They first visited Malaysia on their honeymoon 10 years ago and fell in love, but it was their bold decision to leave Canada after October 7th that led them to start a new life. In this powerful interview, we discuss: ✈️ The real reason they left Canada: Why the current political climate pushed them to make a life-changing move. 🤲 From isolation to belonging: Sana shares what it was like being the only hijabi in her city and the comfort and convenience of living in a Muslim-majority country. ✨ Will's unexpected reversion to Islam: Hear his powerful story and the moment he realized, "I didn’t choose God, God chose me." 🤔 Life in Malaysia: The challenges of being vocal influencers in a new country and how life and fame differ from Canada. ❤️‍🩹 Their mission: How they use their platform to humanize Muslims and their hands-on charity work for Palestine and other causes. This is more than just a migration story. It’s about faith, courage, and finding a sense of purpose. Will and Sana's journey shows how it's possible to build a new life while making a real impact on the world. This is the longest interview I've ever published because every moment was filled with empowering and inspiring stories you need to hear! And thank you to the venue 'After Seven Lounge' in Tamarind Square (CyberJaya) for allowing us to shoot there with delicious tea and coffee! #agaeatskl #salehfamily #malaysia #expatlife #muslim #canadian
