Hana's guest, Yasma, is a remarkable youth of only 16. Born and raised in Lebanon, the economic situation in that country lead her family to move to Dubai in 2020. At the same time, she fought an eating disorder that eventually required temporary hospitalization. While in the hospital, she and her mother started a charity - leveraging Yasma's creative artwork - to benefit children with cancer through donations. While still in a 'recovery' mode herself today, she is also in the process of courageously sharing her private journey as a teen having an eating disorder. You will be inspired by Hana's conversation with this amazing youth.
