Forget fitting in.

Stand out.

Forget fitting in.

Be bold. Stand out.

Don’t try to fit in.

You’re here to stand out.

It’s time for

a change.

Whatever is happening (or not happening) in your life is just not working .

Do any of these sound like you?

“Who am I to start my own business. I don’t have the skills.”

“I need a career change, but where do I begin?”

“I’m not happy in my marriage, but I don’t want to hurt my kids.”

“I know there is more to myself than this. I want to explore who I really am.”

“I dream about living abroad, but I’m afraid to take the leap.”

“Something needs to change, I just don’t know what.”

Fitting in was never the plan for you.

You’re here to stand out and believe in your dreams.

Listen to that inner whisper. It’s there to tell you something.

Do any of these sound like you?

“ I’m either “too much”, or “never enough”, I constantly feel misunderstood.”

“ I struggle finding belonging. So I try to get everything right “

“I don’t even know what I truly want — let alone how to go after it.”

Fitting in was never the plan for you.

You’re here to stand out and believe in your dreams.

Listen to that inner whisper. It’s there to tell you something.

But here’s the thing

You’re stuck. Scattered. You don’t even know where to start.

Let’s be real — believing in yourself is terrifying. That “what if I fail?” voice keeps creeping in.

Change is scary. The unknown feels unsafe.

What you need isn’t just a push — it’s a loving nudge from people who truly get you.

You know what it’s like to feel different, misunderstood, and n’between.

I call us n’betweeners.

We live at the intersection of multiple identities.

Taking risks is easier when you’re surrounded by folks who see your whole self — your intersections, your fears, your brilliance.

What if there were a place where you felt safe enough to leap?

Where courage meets community.

Is the nest the right for you?

✔ You feel stuck like you’re holding yourself back.

✔ You know you need a change in your life but are terrified.

✔ You constantly doubt yourself and your dreams but there’s an inner whisper you can’t seem to shake telling you to go for it.

✔ You crave support and guidance as you move towards a life transition.

✔ You feel a repressed part of yourself desperately wanting to be set free.

✔ You’re yearning to discover new places and find inspiration traveling.

✔ You’re an n’betweener and crave an environment where you’re surrounded by people who just get you.

The nest is NOT for you if:

X You’re looking for 1-1 coaching.

X You move in the world feeling like most understand you.

X You struggle being in intimate spaces of connection and vulnerability.

X You want a quick-fix.

X You’re happy staying where you are in life.

X You’re not prepared to invest in long-term self-development .

So what’s an n’betweener?

An n’betweener is an individual who desires to know themself in their intersectional identities.

We show up in infinitely unique ways. We’re women of color, mixed-race, multicultural immigrants, queer Muslims, Latinx youth, and a multitude of other intersecting identities. 

n’betweeners are multifaceted and beautiful beings, but it’s often a lonely experience. We’re not represented, so it’s common to internalize that we don’t belong anywhere.

Healing happens when we’re reflected and seen. That experience flourishes when we’re in community with one another.

This circle is for you if you are an n’betweener looking for community, growth, and long-term change.

This isn’t a short-term fix, but a milestone on the journey to radical self-progression.

Hey, I’m Nora.

Nora Alwah is a TEDx speaker, psychotherapist, and mental health educator with a decade of experience. 

Nora was born in the space n’between.

She is a mixed-race queer cis-woman of color, and a multilingual immigrant from Denmark and Comoros.

Nora coined the term n’betweener™ to capture the experience of individuals living at the intersection of privilege and oppression.

Individuals who struggle with a sense of belonging, regularly code-switch, feel misunderstood, and often hold themselves back from living their full potential.

Unsure if the nest is for you?

Got a question?

  • There is no one right way of being an n'betweener. An n'betweener is someone who is trying to understand themselves in their complexity. They are someone who often feels misunderstood, and alone in their experience. If you resonate with this, you're probably an n'betweener.

  • The cost of the 6-month program is $1595.

  • No, it is preferred but not required. If you're unable to join a virtual session, you can still participate in The nest. All virtual meetings will be recorded so you'll be able to watch this in your own time. We strongly you encourage you to attend as you'll get the most of the program. Note that some of the dates will be finalized when the group is gathered.

  • Yes, the in-person retreats are a required part of The nest and are meant to foster a deeper sense of community.

    The dates for the in-person gatherings are Oct. 24 -26, 2025 in Boulder, CO.

  • You'll need to secure your housing accommodations for the two in-person retreats in Colorado and New York.

    Lunch will be provided at both retreats, but not dinner.

  • Absolutely. All n'between experiences are welcome. If you feel there's a change needed in your life, you're welcome in The nest. We'll spend time at the beginning of the program identifying the change you want to work towards.

  • This is a deep and intimate experience where we plan accordingly. For this reason, The nest is non-refundable.

    We welcome n'betweeners who are committed and prepared to invest in making a radical change in their life with the support of their community.

  • There are limited spaces in The nest in order to support an intimate environment. The program is capped at 11 people.

  • 100% Yes! The nest is a space of intentional community. While you work to come closer to yourself, you'll get to do so with the support of a community of like-minded people who will become a part of your life far beyond the six months.
