This week we are going deep with Balkanina aka Nina Caviggiola!

In this episode, we dive into Nina’s past and her childhood experience as a refugee. We talk about how her mother saved her and what her life was like living without a father.

We also chat about mental health and anxiety and how her childhood experience affected her as an adult and what she has done to heal those wounds while also being a mom.

This episode is a reminder that everyone has their story. Everyone has their trauma and there is so much that we don’t see on social media.
