About this episode

Eman has invited her very first guest, Farah Abdelgawad, to talk about Self Awareness. Farah has been doing a lot of work on self discovery and is here to share what she has learned. We cannot begin to work on our self or even help others if we don't know ourselves first, which is why this had to be the first episode of the Defty Life Podcast. Eman and Farah talk about what it means to have self awareness and how it can transform our lives.
