It’s 2026, and we’re pressing record on something new.<\/p>\n

GRAZIA Middle East is launching a podcast, The Making Of\u2026 \u2013 a space for thoughtful conversation and real insight, designed to go beyond the surface of success stories we think we already know.<\/p>\n

At a time when so much is distilled into neat soundbites, The Making Of\u2026 slows things down to explore what really happens behind the scenes.<\/p>\n

Each episode aims to look past the polished end result to unpack the realities of building a brand, shaping a career, or carving out a creative voice. From entrepreneurs to cultural tastemakers, personalities, and KOLs across the region and beyond, the podcast invites guests to share the parts of their journeys that don\u2019t always make it into headlines.<\/p>\n

From best-selling author and self-help coach Roxie Nafousi, to Emirati executive Amina Taher, to fashion influencer-turned-fragrance entrepreneur Chriselle Lim, to groundbreaking brow wiz and beauty mogul Anastasia Soare, to corporate executive-turned-founder Amy Liu, each incredible woman has an equally incredible story to share.<\/p>\n

<\/blockquote>\n

This is where the risks, pivots, quiet doubts, and defining decisions come into focus. The day-to-day moments, the lessons learned, and the turning points that shape success over time.<\/p>\n

Intimate, curious, and unmistakably GRAZIA, The Making Of\u2026 is about sparking conversation and reflecting the moment we\u2019re living in \u2013 both locally and globally. We’re here to invite our listeners into the process, not just the outcome.<\/p>\n
