This isn’t just a podcast. It’s a reflection of everything I’ve been quietly carrying, learning, and processing for years. I’m Alveena — teacher, Psychology MSc student, journaler, deep talker, avid reader — and someone who loves teaching small classes through the lens of psychology and Islamic spirituality. Reflections & Realizations was born from all of it: 🖊️ Journals filled with thoughts I never shared 📚 Books that changed the way I see the world 🧠 Psychology lectures that helped me make sense of it all 🎧 Therapy sessions that peeled back the layers 🤍 And faith that kept me grounded through every chapter I’m a writer, a storyteller, and a forever student of the mind and soul. This podcast is my way of bringing it all together. Faith, psychology, and the unfiltered reflections in between. After years of private processing, I finally found the courage to share it out loud — with the quiet belief that maybe someone out there needs to hear it too. Each episode blends what I’ve learned from studying psychology, what I’ve lived through, my faith — and what I’m still trying to figure out. I’m not here to give answers. I’m here to reflect. To question. To process. And maybe help you do the same. If you're into deep conversations, unfiltered thoughts, and growth that feels personal — you’re in the right place.

In this week’s episode, I share a deeply personal moment from my pregnancy when anxiety gripped me after two missed miscarriages. The thought kept looping: “The baby’s going to die again.”
The grief hadn’t left. The fear hadn’t lifted.
And yet, life around me moved on like everything was normal.
Inside, I was screaming. “The baby’s going to die again.”

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
