In the latest episode of The Discomfort Practice, it was such a treat to interview journalist and fellow media professional, Irish Syrian journalist and activist, Razan Ibraheem. Razan is a multi-faceted woman with an impressive career. She's had a high profile, passionate ethos-driven career in journalism, spoken to the UN and worked in a news agency focusing on addressing misinformation in the media. She also sits on the Amnesty board in Ireland and her work has led to her being named International Woman of the Year by Irish Tatler in 2016. Because she is also incredibly glamorous and beautiful. We talk about Razan's deeply personal connection to the tragic situation in her native Syria. While studying in Ireland, Syria imploded into civil war, leaving her unexpectedly unable to go back, suddenly classified as a refugee. She turned this discomfort and her considerable energy to volunteering to help refugees in Greece for two years. Razan says “The people I met and the stories I heard from Syrian refugees changed my perspective on life.” Connect with Razan Ibrahim: Razan on LinkedIn Razan on Instagram Connect with Betsy: Betsy on Instagram Betsy on Twitter Betsy on Linkedin Betsy's website Rate, Review, Learn and Share Thanks for tuning into The Discomfort Practice!

There have been some unlikely and, let’s face it, unwanted comebacks over the years. The Librarians, starring Christian Kane, got a second series in 2014… Liverpool somehow managed to beat AC Milan to the Champions League in 2005… but neither of these can hold a candle to Be Grand, which has returned in glorious fashion for a second series despite nobody in their right mind wanting that. And to kick things off, we’re delighted to bring you a very special guest indeed. Razan Ibraheem is a journalist whose work has appeared in The Guardian and is a regular contributor on politics for Irish TV and radio. Though based in Ireland, Razan was born in Syria and has dedicated her work towards spreading awareness of and educating people about the ongoing Syrian War as well as highlighting the plight of refugees driven from their homes as a result of the conflict. She has spoken about this at the United Nations and was awarded International Woman of the Year by Irish Tatler. Before tackling the Leaving Cert, Razan chats to Andy about what it was like growing up in Syria, what needs to happen to help the people of the battered nation and the unforeseen consequences of having a picture of Ronan Keating at home. Be Grand is back and there’s nobody better to reassure us that things might actually end up okay than Razan and her brilliant dedication to helping others. https://twitter.com/IbrahRazan https://twitter.com/begrandpod https://twitter.com/gottheshift
