In this week's podcast, our host Salim Kassam speaks to Hoda Abrahim, founder and CEO of BlendMatching. They talk about the company's take on matchmaking, which echoes the traditional approach, and how Muslim matchmaking has evolved over time. Sharing anecdotes of their own, Hoda and Salim reflect on marriage, discussing its merits, trials, and tribulations, with a focus on cross-culture marriage and the cost of closed-mindedness.
