My name is Shafi Ahmed and I am the creator and host the Chains of Narrations podcast. I will interview guests from around the country, of course focus on my home town of Detroit, to start a more nuanced and reflective conversation about Muslims and Islam. My inspiration for this podcast came from all of the healthy and real conversations I have been fortunate to have with many of our leaders throughout the years that don’t always make your social media feed. I hope to link us all to these chains and share these productive conversations with everyone. I live in the Metro Detroit area and I am an accounting and finance professional who enjoys food and sports in my free time. Feel free to leave comments and ratings so I can continue to create a better podcast with each episode.
