Listen Later

In this week's episode of WTV I spoke with Nadia Abdelal, a strong woman of Lebanese Muslim background, and a mother to 3 older children (aged 21, 18, 16)... where to begin... what a beautiful, profound and interesting episode. In addition to her journey to parenthood, Nadia and I chat about her culturally conservative upbringing, her marriage story, pregnancies, and experience with trauma. She shares her story with such honesty and self-reflection, including her exposure to mental health issues and trauma that presented in her father, herself, and her brave daughter. So beautiful.I hope you enjoy listening - join me in holding space for this story. Please be aware of the usual language warning and also the content warning below!- TORS xxCW: trauma, pregnancy loss, suicide, self harm and mental illness.
