Welcome to Third Culture Therapy with Layla Maghribi, a podcast that looks at the unique ways our cultural heritage impacts our mental and emotional well-being. Mental ill-health is a big concern across all societies and the topic is thankfully gaining more prominence in the media and within social circles. However, these discussions largely remain Western-centric and without enough regard to the unique aspects of a person’s culture, politics, religion and social history and the impact they have on our inner wellbeing.
Where we come from and the parts of that place or places that we carry with us shape our view of the world as well as many of the challenges that we face and the traumas we carry.
In our increasingly mobile and diasporic world, how do our multiple, sometimes conflicting, identities affect how we feel about ourselves and others? How do conflict, discrimination and repression harm us mentally? How do traditions, community and faith heal us emotionally? How does the discourse around mental health differ from country to country?
Every week, Layla speaks to people from diverse background, professions and mental health journeys to find out what aspects of their culture have helped or hindered their mental health.
