#337: How to Walk Away from what No Longer Serves You with Najwa Zebian

Made in Dubai with Spencer Lodge

The scariest thing isn’t change, it’s never changing at all. So why do we resist it?

Najwa Zebian – poet, author, and advocate – has built a global following by confronting life’s hardest truths:

Why we stay in toxic relationships,

Why walking away feels impossible, and

Why we struggle to truly own our worth.

In this episode, she opens up about loss, identity, and rebuilding life on her own terms. If you’ve ever felt trapped or afraid to move forward, this conversation will change the way you see yourself, and your future.
