Show Notes
The Shadow Sessions is a podcast for the stories we hide, the ones too painful, too early, or too private to ever make it to therapy. Hosted by psychologist and trauma alchemist Hiba Balfaqih, each episode sits with the truths people were never given permission to speak.
From survivors of abuse to those confronting their deepest shadows, these are raw, unfiltered conversations about what we carry and what it costs us.
Launching January 8 on all platforms, The Shadow Sessions is a space for anyone who’s ever felt unseen, unheard, or unsafe to tell their story. Because there is light in the shadow, if someone is willing to sit there with you.
