Do We Have An Identity Crisis Problem? | ThinkVillage
Tue Feb 03 2026
Welcome back to another episode of the FairDinkum podcast!
This episode has been a long time coming, introducing 2 of our past guests we loved bringing on once again. Mahamad Ahmed (aka Mo Social Impact) & Hanad Hersi join us on the couch today speaking on their new organisation Think Village.
Think Village is a non-for-profit organisation that deeply commits to empowering our communities, especially young people and build safer connected neighbourhoods emphasising that "it takes a village".
In today's episode we discussed how a lack of identity impacts young people's decisions, why focusing on mental wellbeing and justice is what we're missing in our communities and practical changes we can make today with the power of communication with young people.
Enjoyyy the pod!
