Sabeeha will take you through her journey in her book, It’s Not What You Think. An American Woman in Saudi Arabia. What compelled her—a hospital executive, living in New York City—to relocate to Saudi Arabia, where women couldn’t even drive? What was it like to don the abaya? Did she feel restrained or liberated? Were women treated differently in the workplace? She will share the contradictions in the Saudi culture and the veiled power of women. She will take you on her pilgrimage to Mecca—the Hajj, and she will relate to you what it was like to be there on 9/11. It wasn’t what she thought.
