“Supporters of DEI have allowed DEI critics to control the narrative. To turn the tide of public sentiment in favor of DEI, supporters must sharpen their arguments, go on the offensive instead of always reacting…” Great piece by @KevinCokley1 freep.com/story/opinion/cont…
It was fun sharing my journey of becoming a #psychologist, the challenges, lessons, & overall experience of being #MENAinPsych w/ @behaviourspeak. Looking forward to future podcasts & increasing awareness about topics I’m passionate about! #MENAscholars #Iranian @PsychChatter
