Throughout the conversation, Sanaa emphasizes the importance of courage, inclusivity, and resilience in chasing your dreams. The episode also includes the weekly 'literary drop,' featuring a review of The Blackwoods by Brandi Colbert, a fun word association game, and a Q&A session with the audience.
