S2 E9: Not Everything Is A Trauma

We often assume the deepest explanations for our discomfort — trauma, avoidance, unresolved emotions — when sometimes the truth is beautifully simple. In this episode of From Zakhm to Shifa, I share a personal moment: avoiding my bedroom for almost two years, believing something emotional was wrong… until I discovered the real reason was a cold draft slipping through a crack in the window.Through Islamic wisdom, gentle storytelling, and insight from psychology, this episode explores how often we blame ourselves for things that have practical solutions.
