Female Formula by Alia Khafaga is an Egyptian podcast for women. Speaking in the Arabic language,Khafaga’s goal is to empower women in all sorts of ways to foster inclusivity and cohesion in society. Her content is specifically catered to Arab women who experience their own unique struggles.

It doesn’t matter what stage of life you’re in. Khafaga wants to reach mothers, wives, students, girls, and whoever believes that they can benefit from hearing what she has to say. The podcast is still relatively new, but her episodes touch on a wide array of topics from professional advice, to parenting help, to fashion and fitness.

Her current season focuses on finding happiness while under pressure to excel. Female or not, this is probably something you can relate to, and the host brings on experts to dive deep into the chosen topic. In one episode, she brings on child development specialist Nagwa Khedr to discuss the idea of the “perfect mom” and how overwhelming motherhood is but also how to lead a healthier life as a mother where you embrace the hardships and achieve a balance.

What we enjoy the most is how relevant it is to the region. The guests are all experts that you can connect to, if you’re from the MENA region as they come from similar backgrounds: They understand the obstacles of traffic, social roles, and obligations. We don’t often find podcasts that fit this role, so the concept is refreshing to find a podcast that is both entertaining and relatable.
