Honest reflection, not easy answers.

Inner Narratives is a Lebanese interview podcast hosted by Nadine Zakhem, known as Nadz. It is recorded in Beirut, every episode is in English, and each one is a single long conversation with one guest.

Inner Narratives is a podcast about identity, pressure, and the inner life we rarely name. Each episode is host-led and conversational, some reflective, others with guests, but always slow, attentive, and human.

For Lebanese people, especially those shaped by uncertainty, migration, ambition, or distance, these inner narratives often form early and stay unexamined. Because we rarely stop to question them, they harden into habits we don't even notice.

This podcast exists to slow things down. To name patterns without judgment. To create space for honest reflection.

The format follows from that. One guest, one host. No panel, no debate, no advice segment. Nadz asks a question and leaves room for the answer, and the pauses stay in. Guests so far include doctors, founders, lawyers, coaches, artists and musicians, most of them Lebanese, at home or abroad.

The show is recorded in English so it can travel. A listener in Beirut, Montreal or Dubai can follow every word, and so can friends who grew up outside Lebanon. Full episodes are on Spotify and YouTube, and short clips are on Instagram.
