44. Refugee to Refutees: Hussein Al-Baiaty

Hussein’s father once told him that, “Opportunities are like sand. If you’re not careful, you’ll lose some of it.” From fleeing Saddam Hussein’s regime and living in a tent at the Saudi Arabian borders to navigating life in America, his story will not just leave you speechless but will be a warm reminder of why, no matter what challenge you face, we should all be grateful every day. There is no “mission impossible”. Tune in now to Better Call Daddy: The Safe Space for Controversy.
