Show Notes

There’s been an explosion in terms of people’s focus on health—both physical as well as mental & general well-being—over the last few years. Amina Naguib embodies this positive trend as the Founder of Cairo-based B_URN, a workout loosely based on the Lagree fitness method that has evolved into a veritable lifestyle. Amina shares how she got started with her venture, how she managed to build a community of like-minded people in the middle of Egypt’s 2011 revolution and shares her expansion plans in related sectors.
