How I Became Nadiya Hussain

I was the little curly haired girl who would sit in defiance when all the other kids in class would talk about how to wreak havoc with the supply teacher. I would sit and hide under my curly hair and say ‘no’. Not much has changed since then; I still have a habit of saying no, but mostly to my long suffering dad. But a lot has changed too… I have since had 3 of my own children who, not too dissimilar to my 10 year old self, all know their minds very well. So when I complain to my dad that the kids don’t listen, he looks at me with eyes that read ‘karma my dear’. I was born in Luton in 1984, on Christmas Day.

Even if one had no specific career path, a colleg...
