S7 Ep2 - From Culture Clash To Licensed Counselor - Nayla Festa

Oh My God Pod - The Podcast with Hollis Moore and Lori Spiker

Growing up in a culture that was different from her Lebanese immigrant parents, Nayla struggled to balance the worlds of her family, their church and as an American teen. The bond between her and her family was both a blessing and a burden and she struggled as a young woman to make decisions about her medical treatments that ultimately led to a total career and lifestyle change that her family did not approve of. Little did Nayla know that her experiences with medical trauma and her 3rd culture family of origin would provide the exact experience God would use to support other 3rd culture families as a licensed professional counselor. Through it all she learned to let go of control and pay attention to God’s signs and provision. Now, not only does she lean on God as she counsels other families, but her relationship with her parents has been strengthened and it’s been a blessing to see them as grandparents to her children. Hear how Nayla continues the traditions of faith, family and loving others well with the gifts God has given her.
