from Something to Consider · host Dana Alhanbali
In this episode of Something to Consider, we sit down with Kuwaiti interior designer and founder Meshary, whose story-led approach to space and design has gained recognition across the region.But this conversation is not only about design.It is about the search for self in the space between expectation and alignment. It is about growing up feeling misunderstood, choosing a path that was not always understood, building a creative business, leaving home and carrying it with you while trying to grow somewhere else.Together, we talk about family, sacrifice, Arab identity, Kuwaiti hospitality, creative ambition, gatekeeping in the design industry, the emotional cost of building something of your own, and what it means to create work that reflects who you are, not just what looks beautiful.At its heart, this is a conversation about home, belonging, and the courage it takes to design a life that actually feels like yours.We hope you find something to consider.Connect with the guest:Website: www.mesharyalnassar.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/mesharyalnassar/
