Farhiya Abdi is a Somali-Swedish professional basketball player. In 2012, she became the first Somali, and third Swede, to join the WNBA and we’re really excited that she’s agreed to join us at House of Culture to share her learnings. “My name is Farhiya Abdi. I’m a female professional athlete. I'm filled with an overwhelming sense of gratitude for the blessings that have come my way, through the power of sports. The milestones I've achieved, such as representing the national team and to making history as the first-ever Somali drafted into the WNBA and the third-ever Swedish player drafted, represent not only personal accomplishments but also I believe hold a unique opportunity to inspire and uplift individuals across various backgrounds. Through basketball, I've been able to share a gift that is beyond measure, echoing the values of gratitude and giving that resonate deeply within my heart. I want my impact to go far beyond the courts and fields; want it to reach into hearts and minds, encouraging individuals to chase their dreams relentlessly and to believe in the power of their potential. My journey is not just my own; it's a beacon of hope, resilience, and transformation that lights the way for others on their own journeys of self-discovery, achievement, and empowerment.” Tickets are free but limited, you can secure yours today at houseofculture . unconventional . vc cc: Nora Thea
