In this episode we listen to Simona Georgieva's story of struggling with her mental health and how it affected her physically. The society we live in thinks that women always strive to lose weight but in many cases it stems from medical conditions which people are unaware of. We'll also get to hear how growing up in Israel has affected her: her choice of education as a journalist, the trauma that the conflict caused her and the last couple of months' constant fear of losing family members and friends. Simona is an advocate for open conversations and helping other people get through difficult situations. Hear all her valuable insights and tips in this week's episode of Women of My Generation.
