Sometimes Down, But Never Out: A Conversation with Amel Ali

Welcome to the first episode of Season Two of the Paradigm Podcast! Today's guest is Amel Ali. A long-time resident of Iowa City, IA and a friend of the podcast host, Mohamed Traore. Some of the topics discussed in today's episode are on the very serious side. We would like to disclose this so that our listeners know what they may be getting in to. To victim's of sexual assault, rape, and abuse: we hear you, and we do our best to sympathize and empathize, even though we do not know exactly how you may feel. May you find peace, and comfort in your case, and in life. To all those struggling with mental health: you are stronger than you know. Continue to seek healing, good relationships, and love yourself, no matter how hard it may be sometimes. Thank you, and we hope you enjoy the episode.
