Show Notes:
Thank you so much dear friends for spending your time with us today! I am so glad you were able to meet Ibtissem. What a complete treat to hang out and chat – thank YOU so much Ibtissem for sharing your story with us, and inspiring us and really, for making us smile.
Here are the top 10 take aways from our chat in no particular order:
- Ibtissem is an educator and life-long learner through and through.
- She is so very proud of her parents (and her family) and being their daughter and sister to her siblings.
- We were both surprised when she realized that getting married was such a pivot for her.
- Constantine is known as the city of bridges
- She is thankful her parents instilled in her a love of reading
- She finds joy in having a coffee with a friend, ideally in nature
- She would love to get her Ph.D – and knowing Ibtissem, she will find a way to make it happen
- Her level of resilience and determination is off the charts
- She has a very high level of emotional intelligence
- Her name means smile – and I hope that you like, like I did, smiled during this chat.
Again, merci beaucoup mon amie, shukran. Thank you.
