    Description

    What if I told you that being ugly is not an aesthetic at all but an emotion? Reema Zaman, a woman who is actually very beautiful by societal standards, with a modeling and acting career, in addition to being a well-awarded writer, grew up ugly and unseen, dismissed even. But what does it really mean to be ugly? What does it really mean to be beautiful? And can you be both?  For More on Reema Zaman:Email - REEMA@REEMAZAMAN.COM Website_ https://www.reemazaman.com Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/reemazaman LinkedIn:  https://www.linkedin.com/in/jodi-miller-a70a008/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/JodiMillercomic/ X: https://twitter.com/reemazaman Facebook : https://www.facebook.com/reema.zaman/ Podcast - https://www.owltail.com/people/6fq1s-reema-zaman/appearances Book- https://www.amazon.com/I-Am-Yours-Reema-Zaman/dp/1948705117Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/only-one-in-the-room--6052418/support.

    Hosted by Laura Cathcart Robbins, a writer and a recovery thriver and survivor, Laura found herself in an all too familiar position. In September 2018, she was the only black woman in the room at Brave Magic, a famed writer’s retreat. After it was over, she wrote about her “only one” experience in The Huffington Post and comments started flooding into her DM. These comments were from people from all races, ethnicities, creeds, and nationalities who had felt “othered”. Laura beautifully interviews a person about their Only One story each episode and addresses as many of those DM’s as possible in the process. In this podcast, you’ll hear raw, vulnerable accounts from people who are, like most of us, just eager to connect. Our hope is that The Only One In The Room will inspire a change of perspective in how we all see and hear each other’s stories. We want you think twice before judging the person standing next to you at a party, in the pick-up line at school or in a crowded subway car. This is a podcast for anyone who has ever felt alone in a room full of people – which is to say, that this podcast is for everyone.
