Basmah Osman had us all reaching for our notebooks after her inspiring appearance today on The Big Breakfast Show with Rob and Nadine, live from 7:00 AM to 10:00 AM on Nile FM. The conversation quickly turned into a powerful deep dive into self-discovery, personal growth, and empowerment. Basmah shared a message that set the tone for the entire interview: &ldquo;If you change your mind, you can change your life.&rdquo;
Basmah, an executive Coach and a Managing Partner at elleKhan Division of FekrKhan, is also serving as a jury member at the upcoming International Women&rsquo;s Summit. With a decade of experience at the Federation of Egyptian Industries, she later transitioned into the world of executive coaching and has since become a strong voice in the women&rsquo;s empowerment movement.
When asked how she defines success, Basmah reflected, &ldquo;Success in life is about asking yourself&mdash;who do I want to be? I want to do this, I want to be this.&rdquo; She emphasized the importance of self-awareness as a catalyst for building confidence and making informed life choices.
But what if you're uncertain about your path? Basmah encourages asking yourself, &ldquo;What are my options and resources?&rdquo; Every step forward, she says, is either a move in the right direction or a lesson that helps clarify what you truly want. Disappointment, while difficult, is often an inevitable part of the journey&mdash;but it also prepares you for what's next.
She highlighted the power of failure and starting over: &ldquo;If I haven&rsquo;t been through difficult experiences, how can I empathize with others?&rdquo; According to her, pain and setbacks are not just part of life&mdash;they&rsquo;re essential to understanding it from a human perspective.
On the topic of imposter syndrome, Basmah shared candidly, &ldquo;I&rsquo;m 60 years old and I still get it.&rdquo; That voice in your head that questions your worth is just your mind trying to keep you in the comfort zone, she explained. The key to overcoming it? Focus on taking one step at a time&mdash;almost like manifesting success.
As she prepares to sit on the jury panel at the International Women&rsquo;s Summit, Basmah shared how she gears up for public speaking: &ldquo;I do prepare, but I also read the room. Every audience is different.&rdquo; What excites her the most? &ldquo;Discovering the hidden gems&mdash;meeting women from different industries feels like a treasure hunt.&rdquo;
She also made a powerful statement on women&rsquo;s representation: &ldquo;If women aren&rsquo;t given space, they&rsquo;ll create their own.&rdquo; And she urged companies and stakeholders to diversify their teams: &ldquo;The world can&rsquo;t run on just 50% of its population. When men and women work together, you get a powerhouse.&rdquo;
Basmah Osman left us with more than inspiration&mdash;she left us with a mindset shift.
