My name is Houda El-Hassan, and I’m a 28-year-old Muslim Lebanese woman, who was born and raised in Australia. I have a Bachelor and Masters in Psychology, and I’m the Co-Founder and Principal Psychologist at Guiding Light Psychology, a private practice in Sydney.

I have always loved learning. I love educating people about everything health related. My background is in food science and I was one of the first cohorts to graduate in this major in Kuwait in 2008. It was a completely new bachelor program.

My name is Hessa Al-Rashed from Kuwait, and I am 31 years old. I live by the quote “You are one and one is many.” I always like to reflect on this as I go through life. A single person, in your opinion, might not be very significant and can only do so much, but one person is in fact able to create change, with Allah’s help.
