About this episode

Today, we are joined by Amanda Jawad, whose journey from a high-flying legal career to becoming a meditation teacher is both inspiring and eye-opening. Amanda's path took her from the vibrant Arab community in Dearborn, Michigan, to the halls of Harvard Law School, and then to the intense world of corporate law in New York City. Despite these accomplishments, Amanda faced profound personal challenges, including a deep depression and the pressures of a high-stress job. In a pivotal shift, Amanda embraced spirituality and meditation, ultimately finding her calling in helping Arab women release guilt and shame. Join us as Amanda shares her incredible journey of self-discovery, resilience, and the transformative power of embracing one's true path. More on Amanda here: https://msha.ke/amandajawad
