Description

Yana, a sixteen-year-old from Ukraine, loves a good challenge. So when her mom told her that Chinese is the hardest language in the world, she decided to start learning it right away. Now she’s also studying Hebrew and has a growing interest in Formula 1 and neurobiology.

Together with her friend, Yana co-founded Soulfire — a Ukrainian online space where they share stories of women who changed the world. You can follow their project at @girlsoulfire.

Tune in to this episode to hear Yana talk about all of this — and much more!
