36. Mental Health, Boundaries & Trauma with Dr. Nahla

Do you struggle with <strong><em>saying no</em></strong> to things & people? Do you or someone you know battles with <strong><em>mental health</em></strong>? Do you want to better understand what <strong><em>trauma</em></strong> is?  In this episode, I had the pleasure to speak with the inspiring <strong><em>Dr. Nahla</em></strong>. Dr. Nahla is a psychiatry resident living in Canada. Originally Syrian, she strongly identifies to her Middle Eastern roots. Through her social media page, she shares content to <strong><em>help destigmatize mental health illnesses & disorders</em></strong>. The way I see it, she’s an <strong><em>advocate for love</em></strong> and is truly in service to support and guide people who may not understand what is truly going on a psychological & emotional level.  Dr. Nahla & I both share our <strong><em>personal experiences</em></strong> with our own mental health and what helped us navigate these more challenging times. We also talk about <strong><em>how to stop people pleasing</em></strong> and how those who truly love you will always recognize your value and <strong><em>respect your boundaries.</em></strong> We hope that through this episode you learn more about <strong><em>how to support yourself</em></strong> and others during intense life experiences. These traumatic experiences impact at least one person you know and it’s important to have empathy towards everyone. mariaamiouni.com @maria.amiouni @thecosmicchannel @imdoctornahla -- Edited and Mixed By <a title="Podcast Production Company" href= "https://sonorouslab.com/" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">sonorouslab.com</a>
