MAYA JAMA on the cover of our Autumn/Fall 2020 Issue

“I definitely think I’m resilient… Sometimes I surprise myself,

because there’s been a few times I feel like oh my God, this

is the end of the world — and then it’s not the end of the

world. And then I’m back.”

With a loud, unapologetic approach to life and Leo energy always,

Maya Jama has carved out a space in the media industry that’s

unequivocally her own. Covering our Autumn issue, the presenter

and actor talks moving at a million miles an hour, taking

every opportunity she can and refusing to limit herself in any way.

From her recent stint co-hosting BBC One’s Peter Crouch: Save

Our Summer, to her first major role in Katherine Ryan's new Netflix

series The Duchess and a new line of face masks in the works,

Jama reflects on the rapid rate her career is expanding and how

she’s learned to adapt to the invasion of privacy it brings. Looking

back on the various hardships she’s overcome in life, she explains

why speaking out about her experiences has been imperative to

owning her narrative, and how she’s let go of self-doubt to come

into her own.
