This week, I had the pleasure to host a phenomenal and in depth interview with the amazing Terna, of (among many things) Coming Out Muslim. We had a deep dialogue with all about her insights and relationships with education, Islam, sexuality, health, healing, and self-care!
Terna is a Nigerian/ Liberian/American artist, facilitator and healer. She holds an MA in Counseling Psychology and Global Mental Health, and graduate degrees in International Conflict Analysis and Teaching. She has worked as a public school teacher in New York, at the United Nations, and currently works to help survivors of homicide and victims of community violence.
Terna is also the co-writer of Coming Out Muslim: Radical Acts of Love, which captures stories and experiences of being at the intersections of Islam and queerness and its relationship to family, lovers, one’s sense of self and relationship with our faith.
Get ready to be absolutely enthralled!
