SHEEN GURRIB
About this episode

In this episode, I have a lovely catch up with Nadir Nahdi. We talk about the the pivot from academia to creative careers, we deep dive into cultural identities and how they impact our choice of life partners and we also get into the depth of masculinity and the modern men! Nadir is a great story teller and is great at building communities wherever he goes! It was awesome to hear more about his work and his approach to life! Tune in!
