Episode 21 | The time I learned to accept uncertainty
Cross-cultural surprises
🇹🇳 In this episode of "Intercultural Surprises", I take you to Tunisia to explore a very common expression in the Arab world: "Inshallah"! 🇹🇳
Discover how this phrase, which means "God willing", can have different shades depending on context and country. I share personal and family anecdotes, including a funny situation my father experienced in Egypt. I also stress theimportance of understanding these subtleties to better navigate intercultural exchanges, whether at work or in everyday life.
This episode looks at our relationship with uncertainty and how it is perceived differently in different cultures. You'll see why this notion can be both fascinating and destabilizing for some.
Whether you're an expatriate, a traveller or just curious about cultures and diversity, this podcast is for you!
Enjoy!
