The Only Constant Is Change with Najwa Zebian

Let It Be Easy with Susie Moore

Do you ever feel overwhelmed by the relentless push to achieve and hustle, wondering if there's a better way to live authentically? Join me as I welcome Najwa Zebian, an inspiring activist, author, speaker, and poet. Together, we discuss her new book, "The Only Constant: A Guide to Embracing Change and Leading an Authentic Life," and dive into the transformative power of embracing change.

Najwa opens up about her journey, from her early days in Canada encountering Shakespeare to the bold decision to leave her doctorate program. Through her story, we explore the importance of recognizing one's inner strength and shifting away from a victim mentality to live a life of genuine connection and presence.

In this heartfelt episode, I share my own experiences of grappling with loss, self-compassion, and the cultural pressures that often drive us to overachieve. We address the profound impact of both chosen and unchosen changes in our lives and the courage required to navigate these transitions. Through personal anecdotes and reflections, we highlight how understanding and accepting change is essential for personal growth. Najwa emphasizes the need for empathy, patience, and self-awareness as we walk the path toward a more authentic existence, free from the constant chase for external validation.

Our conversation also deepens into the complex relationship between identity, achievements, and self-worth. We uncover the pitfalls of perfectionism and the endless quest for external approval, sharing therapeutic insights and personal stories to illustrate the journey toward self-acceptance. We also touch on the importance of setting boundaries, healing our inner child, and understanding how emotions like jealousy can signal areas for personal growth. This episode is a treasure trove of wisdom for anyone looking to embrace change, live authentically, and recognize their intrinsic value beyond external successes. Don't miss this enriching dialogue with the remarkable Najwa Zebian.
