297 - Global Perspectives on Identity, Mental Health, and Psychology with Nora Alwah

Many of us know what it feels like to navigate a middle space. Folks who are gender-fluid come to mind. But I'm also thinking of those who balance a privileged identity with their relationship to a traditionally oppressed group. Or anyone whose ethnicity is not commonly associated with the culture in which they grew up.  How do we express this complicated identity in terms that others might understand or empathize with? Nora Alwah, founder of n'betweener©, a global platform and space of belonging, helps folks voice their truth and transform the pain of being an n'betweener into revolutionary joy.  GUEST BIO Nora Alwah (she/her) - Coach. Therapist. TEDx speaker. Writer. Community-builder. Nora Alwah is the founder of n'betweener®, a global platform and space of belonging for those who don't fit the mold—often misunderstood, frequently overlooked, and always n'between. Through n'betweener®, she helps outliers feel seen, come home to themselves, and step into their purpose. *** Join the Group Practice (R)evolution!
