10. My broken engagement: Healing and moving on with Fatima Garba

6/17/2023
Season 1 episode 10. Yes this episode is coming on late because a part of me was (and still is) scared to share. Anyway here goes nothing. We all have had a heartbreak or more. And in today’s episode I will be sharing with you guys how I healed and moved on from mine. It was such an emotional episode to film, I recorded this episode like 4 times, I kid you not😅 but anyway here goes nothing. I think it’s brave of me to open up about this, it happens to a lot of us, and we need to start speaking on it, it needs to be normalized, because it’s normal and it’s happening. Anyway, let me know what you think after listening. And don’t not forget we need more people telling their stories, and NEVER FULLY UNDERSTOOD is 100% here to tell your story🩷 find us on instagram: https://instagram.com/neverfullyunderstood_?igshid=ZWQyN2ExYTkwZQ==
