What happens when the stories we’re raised on become the shackles we need to break?
Today's guest, Dima Ghawi was born in Turkey, raised in Jordan, and is now living in the US... Her journey is one of defiance, resilience, and rebirth. From escaping an abusive marriage to shattering generational expectations (and quite literally, the metaphorical vase she was taught to be), Dima shares how she found freedom, purpose, and identity on the other side of survival.
We talked about the silent weight of shame, the power of questioning inherited norms, and what it really means to take the pen and rewrite your own story. Whether you’ve ever felt like a misfit, carried the invisible scars of conformity, or questioned who you truly are beneath the roles you've played… this one’s for you.
