Grab some tea and a blanket and get cozy because Nadia’s going IN on this episode, sharing her full self, no holds barred.

In the first of this two-part series, Nadia talks all about her upbringing, where she came from and how it influenced the work that she does today.

How she grew up in a deeply religious home and found her own pathway into spirituality.

When she rejected religion entirely and why.

Her deepest childhood wounds around fear of social rejection and financial scarcity.

Her money story, getting into college and paying for her education with scholarships, and the distorted ambition that this fueled during her early days in the corporate world.

Why she felt so WEIRD as a kid and how she’s reclaiming these parts of herself now as her greatest gifts!

By sharing her story, she hopes you find bits of yourself along the way. We are all interconnected and while her experiences may be unique, the feelings she shares are ones we've all felt at some point in our lives.

It's only be sharing our full selves that we will begin to feel less isolated and more connected by similar threads in this ongoing human experiment we call life.
