The Spiritual Journey of a Palestinian Woman

In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Miriam Abd El Hay, a remarkable Palestinian woman from Tira. She shares her unique journey of navigating life, identity, and spirituality. Miriam opens up about her multicultural upbringing, the challenges she faced in that complex cultural landscape, and how she has maintained her sense of self through it all. Initially pursuing a career in dentistry, a shift in her path led her to activism and the creation of a spiritual space for Palestinians. She also discusses her experience at the Arava Institute and her research internship on the environmental crisis in Gaza and its regional implications. Join us as she reflects on her life’s transitions, the struggles and triumphs along the way, and the spiritual insights that guide her ongoing pursuit of justice and truth.
