Immigrantly

Too Foreign for Home, Too Foreign for Here

Identity isn’t always a box you check; it’s a journey. In this episode of Immigrantly, host Saadia Khan sits down with Beatriz Nour, the creator of Inbetweenish, a podcast that unpacks the complexities of belonging across cultures, languages, and traditions. Beatriz shares her personal story of navigating three cultures, four languages, and two religions, reflecting on the struggles and privileges of being in between.


From growing up as a minority in Egypt to questioning her Arab identity and redefining what home truly means, Beatriz challenges the idea of fixed identities and explores what we gain when we embrace fluidity. Plus, they discuss code-switching, immigrant nostalgia, and the biases we inherit and how to unlearn them.


What does it mean to belong? Are we all living in cultural contradictions? And can we ever feel at home anywhere?


Tune in for a thought-provoking conversation about identity, migration, and the universal search for belonging.
