You Get to Be Rainbow: What it Means to be an n'betweener with Nora Alwah Ep. 29
Description
What does it mean to live between cultures, languages, and identities, and still feel whole?
In this incredible conversation with Nora Alwah we explore the beauty and complexity of being an n'betweener: someone who moves through the world carrying many identities that don't fit neatly into one box. Not only is Nora a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and somatic psychotherapist, but a TEDx Speaker and powerful storyteller.
She shares powerful stories of navigating belonging; from always needing to prove that she "belonged" with her Danish mother, to finding belonging in the streets of Brooklyn. Together, we talk about chronic shame, community, queerness, and the deep desire to be seen as whole rather than split.
We also unpack the 4 I's of oppression, the difference between explaining and sharing who we are, and the powerful healing that happens when parents believe their child's experience without question.
"You get to be rainbow" is a story that will stick for a lifetime.
This episode is a reminder that our multiplicity is not a problem to fix, it's a gift to celebrate.
