Izzy
Available todayAs a daughter of a narcissistic mother and someone who has endured religious trauma, I want you to know this first: you are not alone. I was born and raised in Pakistan and have navigated my own journey through anxiety, CPTSD, depression, and dyslexia. For a long time, I carried guilt, confusion, and the quiet feeling of never being fully seen. Therapy was a meaningful and supportive part of my healing, and I’m grateful for the clarity it provided. Over time, I also began attending peer support groups, where I experienced something deeply transformative, being witnessed by others who showed up vulnerably and met me as an equal. That sense of shared humanity shifted my healing in profound ways. I originally trained and worked as a medical doctor, but I came to understand that my heart was in creating spaces centered on connection, presence, and lived experience.

Understanding exercise
For many, exercise is more than physical — it’s deeply tied to mental and emotional well-being. Whether someone is trying to build healthy habits, overcome body image issues, or manage motivation and burnout, the journey can be filled with self-doubt or societal pressure. Peer support offers encouragement rooted in shared experiences. Participants can explore their relationships with movement in a compassionate environment, gaining motivation from others who understand the highs and lows of staying active. These sessions promote balance and self-acceptance, turning exercise into a source of empowerment rather than stress.
