Izzy
As 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 major life changes
Major life changes — whether exciting or difficult — can shake our sense of stability and identity. Moving, changing jobs, ending relationships, or starting new chapters can all bring emotional turbulence and leave us feeling uncertain or unmoored. Peer support provides a steadying force during these transitions. By talking with others going through similar shifts, participants gain clarity, emotional support, and often practical ideas for coping. These sessions offer both reassurance and connection, reminding people they are not navigating change alone.
