inbetweenish
If you're generally confused about where you belong, you may have just stumbled into the right place! The inbetweenish is exactly what it sounds like: it's about the space in-between, where it's neither here nor there, where you don't fit neatly into a box.
Through open conversations with people from all walks of life, we will share personal stories about growing up in numerous countries, amongst different faiths, speaking multiple languages, and integrating into new and diverse cultures. Join me, your host, Beatriz Nour, as I navigate the delicate dynamics of growing up inbetweenish.
