Emad Shargi: From Freedom to Captivity, Surviving The Injustice in Iran
In this unforgettable episode of The SuperPower Podcast, host Dr Gian Power OBE sits down with Emad Shargi for a conversation that spans dramatic extremes; beginning in warmth and security, and plunging into injustice, isolation, and ultimately, liberation.

He speaks about his academic journey, international education, and a rising career in global business that allowed him to form meaningful relationships around the world.
⚡️ Arrest, Accusations & a Sudden End to FreedomEmad recounts the shocking day everything changed, arrested without warning while visiting Iran, and falsely charged with political crimes he did not commit. He takes listeners inside the confusion, fear, and psychological pressure of interrogation, separation, and the crushing uncertainty that followed.
⚡️ Finding Humanity Behind Bars: Friendship, Kindness & SurvivalOver more than five years in prison, Emad describes the bleak conditions, the daily emotional battles, and the lifeline of connection he found in fellow prisoners. He reflects on shared resilience, unexpected friendships, and small, vital acts of kindness that kept hope alive when freedom felt impossibly distant.
⚡️ Held, But Unbroken: Dignity, Hope & the Power of Global AdvocacyEmad speaks candidly about surviving captivity without losing himself. He reflects on preserving dignity, staying mentally strong, and his deep gratitude for the unwavering support from his family and international human rights advocates who fought loudly for his release.
⚡️ The Longest Flight: Reunited at LastAfter five and a half unimaginable years, Emad describes the overwhelming emotion of his return to the United States, and the moment he finally embraced the people he feared he might never see again.
⚡️ A Warning & a MissionNow free, Emad is outspoken in his message, highlighting the very real risks faced by dual nationals and foreign visitors in Iran. He advocates passionately for empathy, awareness, and action in support of political prisoners who remain unjustly detained.
Emad’s impactful story leaves the audience with a question we should all ask ourselves: How can you use your voice to stand up for those who don’t yet have their freedom?
