In this heartfelt and honest episode, Ava sits down with her friend and special guest, Hannah Jarrah, to explore the journey of befriending your being — learning to accept, love, and understand yourself through all seasons of life. Their conversation weaves through stories of childhood, cultural identity, shame, healing, and reconnecting with your inner child.
Hannah shares her experiences with depression, family separation, and the emotional crash that followed early entrepreneurial success. Together, they reflect on radical self-acceptance, embracing your whole self (even the messy parts), and finding beauty in being human. Grounding and inspiring, this episode is a gentle reminder to be patient with yourself and keep showing up.
