Join us on Mental Matters as our guest, an Australian-born Lebanese author and filmmaker, shares her journey through three wars, teen motherhood, and the mental health struggles that followed. Discover how she turned trauma into resilience, using writing and filmmaking to confront generational pain and advocate for children caught in conflict. This raw conversation explores the power of creativity to heal, the stigma of mental health in ethnic communities, and the urgent need to break cycles of hatred—one story at a time. Rate, review, and share if this inspires you!
