With a down to earth feel, this podcast dives into all sorts of discussions around everyday life experiences. We're no pros, no experts, but as a women in her 40s, who has lived a bit of life, there's "stuff" to talk about! Our individual experiences and all of the outstanding people I've had the pleasure of meeting along my journey, could add a lot of interesting POV's to the table. We dive deep, we are light with laughter and we keep it real.

Balancing Act with Pooya Nabei featuring Marlayna Pincott
Fun loving, talented photographer Pooya Nabei shares his multilayered story and experiences moving from Iran to Canada at the tender age of 17. He walks us through adjusting to a new culture, language, social dynamic and more. Pooya's wonderful journey of growing through his curiosities in photography and the arts which ultimately he made into a career. His optimism to try new things, explore and immerse himself into Canadian culture and lifestyle was, and still is courageous. He explains from an immigrants point of view how he struggled and still struggles with the balancing act of a Canadian Pooya vs Iranian Pooya. "It's a constant struggle as an immigrant because you are always thinking about who you are, who you want to be, and how you want to go forward." -Pooya Nabei (aka: the dude with the wicked hair!)
A heartfelt, enlightening conversation that we couldn't be more proud of our friend for feeling comfortable enough to share with us all.
