Masters of Integration

You’ll Suck at First—And That’s Okay


Listen Later

For too long, we've been told to specialize, to pick one path and stick to it. But what if true success comes from embracing all of who we are?

In this debut episode of Masters of Integration, host Alex Catedral sits down with Suzanne Yatim Aslam, a former actress, Miss Arab USA, and now bestselling author of Post Pardon Me, a dark comedy memoir on postpartum depression and anxiety. Suzanne shares her journey from acting and activism to writing, how she navigated postpartum depression, and how she’s now working to help other moms find healing and connection.

They dive deep into:

The struggle of embracing big dreams while fighting self-doubt

The intersection of creativity, personal growth, and storytelling

Navigating cultural expectations and personal identity

The power of vulnerability in art and life

How past experiences—whether in acting, activism, or motherhood—shape our present and future

If you've ever questioned your career path, felt torn between passions, or struggled to define success on your own terms, this episode is for you. Join us as we explore how to integrate every part of who we are into a meaningful, fulfilled life.

Key Takeaways:

"You can have everything you want—just not all at the same time."

The importance of allowing ourselves to feel and process emotions instead of suppressing them.

Vulnerability as a tool for connection and storytelling.

The courage it takes to pursue multiple passions and redefine success.
