Dear First Gens,

In this episode, host Sara welcomes guest Nora Alwah to The First Gen Madrina Podcast! This gives us a brand new episode for this month's theme first-gen immigration journey!

Nora is a TEDx speaker, somatic psychotherapist, recognized mental health advocate, acclaimed educator with over 15 years of experience, and soon-to-be author. She empowers individuals living with marginalized, conflicting intersectional identities. She calls them n’betweeners ®, a term she coined to describe those who are trying to understand themselves in their complexity. Whether we're mixed-race, BIPOC, queer, immigrants, multicultural, multi/bilingual, trans or gender-nonconforming and infinite other intersectional identities. n’betweeners often feel alone and misunderstood in their experience. Nora is dedicated to creates spaces and community for n'betweeners to feel seen, understood and belong.

Nora is a cis, queer, multiracial woman of color from Denmark and Comoros. She is passionate about transforming the pain from oppression into possibility and guiding people to believe in themselves and discover their most powerful self.
