that's when
14:51
you going
14:54
there, having a group of people,
14:56
as if mohammed sharif invited
14:59
and brought in to talk about a law and
15:02
to see what do you want to ask
15:04
allow of all i one a
15:06
bullet
15:07
how are you asking the love written now
15:09
which level of gender you're visualizing
15:12
how are you trying to get their what

that i have to same a lot you have
16:46
join you for fun and how we
16:48
ask of a law it's all different
16:50
because we all have a personal relationships the
16:52
law and is connected
16:54
to allow was
16:57
it just to recruit me again
17:00
get me back to like okay i'm

amazon i'm going to move i'm going to work here
17:21
and everything here and love for
17:23
was just of that falling into
17:25
place my
17:28
sound this new found confidence and
17:30
trust to push forward the pieces
17:32
and glue her life back together as
17:35
what most women are often left to do thankfully
17:38
in the air we live in a more understood
17:41
the importance of taken care of a mental health
17:43
which is why she signed up to go to their retreat
17:46
however a more mom was also
17:49
going through something similar she
17:51
didn't have the same outlives to help
17:53
her like a modest dad
17:56
cheated were most women in her generation
17:58
do
17:59
she kept saying
18:02
the some i prefer that says the
18:04
had a hero which hardly to
18:07
higher waste this phrases
18:09
i used to know it was used to empower women to
18:12
encourage them to take them power back this
18:15
phrase also has been misused it's
18:18
kind of turned into a double edged
18:20
sword now it just means
18:22
shut up and deal
18:25
true there women at a time
18:27
when encouraged to speak up because
18:29
that was seen as a sign of weakness
18:31
the women women
18:34
weren't allowed to be that
18:35
now
18:37
i would say or their my mom was going through
18:40
on depression really
18:43
know about depression too much
18:46
sure i say seen
18:48
a lot of sadness and
18:50
near sighted near sighted notice
18:52
when i got married around the time i got married
18:55
kinder and ,
18:58
really know better remember when i left
19:00
even when i left to call the the
19:03

55:49
of people couldn't go to my sister as
55:52
lights they would wait
55:54
till i com only because
55:56
again the role that i played a
55:58
with my family and
56:01
i would ask me questions like what's your mom
56:03
crazy
56:05
the hangar
56:07
your mommy says
56:08
how
56:10
did your mom actually talk to your
56:12
but killing fisa
56:15
did you mom really how
56:18
i'm just
56:20
wondering how could you talk to me
56:22
my daughter
56:24
how could you see something like that
56:28
how could you mention and talk about my mom like
56:30
that
56:31
and
56:35
i got to realize that
56:39
to step up for
56:42
myself honestly
56:44
step away from the circle
56:47
when people used to come and visit i used to just
56:49
go sit next to my mom who by
56:51
the way after the first nine when nine tacoma
56:55
and she couldn't get out of that coma solicit
56:58
, her and comfort her and talk
57:00
to her and in whole says she can hear
57:02
us us every day they
57:04
would say she's not gonna survive she's
57:07
not going to last and
57:09
last when you come to the waiting area know these people
57:11
and hundred now i'm not gonna lie though there was
57:13
lie though of support people give us food
57:16
cause or somali community were very good at that
57:18
uses to speak amount
57:20
of support and help
57:23
that to the i realize
57:27

not my mom not my
57:34
