CutheCrap | The Podcast

It's important to ask for advice and have a team of parents, friends, and mentors- but its also important to invite your Self to the conversation. Learning to hear your voice will enable you to differentiate 'what is anxiety and what is intuition?' To differentiate between ; fight or flight. 

Whether its your hair and nails or your finances and taxes -or anything in between-  You need to learn how to do things for yourself.  This is to save yourself time, money, and most often- a headache. Its also a great way to show yourself that you are capable of comprehending things you spent the better part of your life thinking you would never be able to comprehend. 

Don't try to control the process and squeeze yourself in all the easy boxes. Just allow and trust yourself and the process enough to take you and change you. Thats evolution...

This episode is a little different! Dr. Reem Nouman asked if she could be the one to interview me and ask me how I cut the crap from my life and how I started the first podcast in Egypt. 

Therapy has been in high demand over the past few years, as people have started prioritized their mental health. That being said, there has also been an influx of imposters and people posing as therapists and coaches to ride the social media wave but have zero credibility in the field. In this episode I sit with Mohamed Ma'andi to discuss some of the things to look out for. 

Every year I like to sit and catch up with Yasmina. This season was our first episode alone without her fabulous Momager. I got to talk with her about how she navigates being a teenager and a working professional, reflecting on previous topics we've discussed and how she views them today, and how she's been working on her self. 

'Can you fix him?'  Mahmoud Abdel Mageed talks about how he shifted his life 180 degrees by working on shifting his perspective of it.  We discuss his relationship with his wife, and get into questions like did she 'change him,' and does a man even change?  We tackle subjects about fatherhood, being a partner,  and society. This talk is refreshing in its uniqueness and honesty. Unapologetically Mixed UpWelcome to our podcast Unapologetically Mixed Up.

We have been taught that resting goes against everything we aspire to be in life. It's lazy, it's a waste of time, it lacks motivation and energy blah blah blah.Resting is literally where all the work you put in starts to do its thing. YOU NEED REST.Decode that right now! 

Who said that the moment we feel anything other than pure happiness that means we need to jump ship and avoid it at all costs? Allow yourself to FEEL. There is a lot of life, living, and learning that takes place in that space.
