This gripping podcast episode tells the story of a little girl. She was without a care in the world until all the sudden the war turned her world upside down. She was sent to foreign lands with only the clothes on her back and nothing in her pocket. No one knows if she will ever be able to return home again. That was 30 years ago in Yugoslavia. Sadly, it is a story that could not be more relevant today. Listen to the story of Amina Horozic, from tragedy, to resilience, to achievement and in the end, hope. May her story inspire the thousands affected by wars, wherever they may be.
