Lyna holds a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Utah State University, and she has recently completed her master's degree in Counseling Psychology at Pacifica Graduate Institute.

Kacy Shea: On Nutrition & the Mind
On this episode, I speak with Kacy Shea, known online as The NeuroNutritionist. Kacy is a seasoned Functional Diagnostic Nutritionist, Certified Holistic Nutritionist, and Brain Health Coach. For half a decade, Kacy has been dedicated to enhancing the lives of busy individuals by unlocking the profound synergy between nutrition and neurological wellness.
I discovered Kacy while visiting my friend Sophia in Tulum in 2021. I was sharing my health struggles when I came across Kacy's offerings. Kacy is truly a miracle worker! This conversation has been long overdue, and I hope that it provides anyone listening with a better understanding of the mind and body connection. Your body does indeed keep score.

Parsa Garrett On: Iran. The Movement. The Dream for Freedom
On this episode, we will be talking to Parsa Garrett, a full-time corporate attorney who's spent the last few moments traveling across the United States to photograph and document the rallies and protests of the Iranian diaspora. He's dedicated his photography to amplifying the voices of the people of Iran. We discuss his personal story, the movement, and the Iran he wants to return to. Parsa has done an incredible job of supporting the movement in any way he can and is very genuine in his love for freedom and justice.

Aliya Ahwazi On: The Identity Struggles of the Arabs of Ahwaz
Hey guys! Thanks for joining me again on Identity. In this episode, we are talking to Aliya Ahwazi, who is an Arab from Iran. With everything happening in Iran, I believe its time we listened to the voices of the people. All people of Iran have a unique experience, the more we know about one another the more we can empthazie, understand, and hold space for each other. Its time to open our hearts and minds to hearing different perspectives, different voices, voices that have been silenced for far too long. We do not connect with one another or become united by silencing each other, but by connecting, sharing, and relating to one another personal experiences. With that said, I'm excited to share this conversation with you all.
Aliya Ahwazi is an Ahwaz Arab living in the United States. She advocates for the rights, dignity, and identity of the Ahwazi nation. You can find her on instagram @Ahwaz_studies
Tara Fatehi On: The Kurdish Identity
On this episode, I will be talking to Tara about Kurdish Identity and Racism within the Iranian community. I will say that while I have personally heard many racist and ignorant remarks about the Kurds of Iran, its important to note that not all Iranians have nationalist views and not all Iranians are racist towards other ethnicities. This conversation is meant to shed light on a matter that is very taboo and extremely misunderstood and was sparked by the way Kurds were treated at protests outside Iran. My hope is that through this conversation we can spark some interest for Iranian and non-iranian people to want to be more informed on these matters.
