Dr Susan Carland was raised in a similarly Christian, white bread, Anglo environment to mine, so how did she get from there to here?

She's married to Waleed Aly. She has two children. And a PHD. 

So how did she become one half of Australia’s pre-eminent Muslim power couple?

In a very honest conversation, Susan speaks about converting to Islam at 19, marrying Waleed and why she chooses to wear the Hijab.
