THE SHADOW
SESSIONS
"For the parts of you that never made it to therapy"
A raw, unfiltered exploration of trauma, healing, and the hidden parts of ourselves we rarely speak about. Hosted by Hiba Balfaqih.
ABOUT THE PODCAST
Where Healing Begins in the Shadows
The Shadow Sessions is more than a podcast—it's a sacred space for the conversations we've been too afraid to have. Here, we explore the depths of human experience: trauma, addiction, shame, and the transformative power of shadow work.
Each episode brings raw, unscripted conversations with guests who have walked through their own darkness and emerged with wisdom to share. No performance. No pretense. Just truth.

The Secret She Carried for Decades: Her Father Was the Father of Her Children
We teach kids to avoid strangers. To trust their gut. To believe home means safety. But what if home was the danger? In this first episode of The Shadow Sessions, host Hiba Balfaqih sits down with Aziza Kibibi — a survivor whose story of incest, betrayal, and survival shatters the illusion of safety.
We All Have Something We Are Hiding
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.
