The Diverse Bookshelf Podcast

The latest episode of the podcast is one of the most raw, open and vulnerable conversations I’ve had on the show since the very beginning. For this episode, I spoke to the incredible, Hala Alyan about her memoir, I’ll Tell You When I’m Home.

We talked about infertility and baby loss, and how these experiences shape us, forever change us and influence our ideas of home, belonging, identity, safety and the self. We talked about the endless waiting, and all the ways so many of us are constantly waiting for *something*. We also talked about home, Hala’s experiences with alcohol addiction and eating disorders, exile, Palestine and so much more.

These topics are pretty heavy, so please tread carefully ❤️

As always, episodes are available everywhere you listen to your podcasts.
