EP 3: Ranim's Story: Walking into a Completely Different World 🌍

Ranim invites us into her journey from growing up in Syria to resettling in a place that felt entirely unfamiliar. This episode captures the emotional and cultural shock of stepping into a new world, especially as a young woman navigating change far from home. With limited English and little understanding of her new environment, she faced the daunting task of navigating school, community, and identity in a completely new world.
