Being Human with Leana Deeb
Hi, my name is Leana Deeb, and this is the space I wish existed when I was growing up, finding myself, and figuring out who I truly wanted to be. We all go through seasons of growth and realignment, trying to stay grounded, build discipline, and stay true to ourselves. Every week, I’ll share honest conversations and reflections around faith, identity, discipline, purpose, health and everything in between. Sometimes it’s just me talking about what I’m learning, and other times I’ll sit down with people who inspire me to think deeper and live better. Some episodes will challenge you. Others will bring peace. But every one of them is here to remind you that you’re not alone, and that growth is never perfect, it’s personal.

Leo Skepi: On Hate, Healing, and Why He Opened the Bible

I Had to Let Go of People to Find Myself: Here's What God Was Teaching Me
In this solo episode, Leana gets real about the season she's currently in: one of realignment, protecting her energy, and learning to trust what God removes just as much as what He brings.
She opens up about the dangers of the wrong circle, over-sharing your goals, and how people-pleasing quietly keeps you out of alignment with yourself. She also responds to a listener DM about navigating the des
Why I Stopped Training with Music
In this solo episode, Leana comes back from the London Marathon and gets radically honest about where she is right now. She talks about breaking through the wall at mile 17, her complicated history with music and why she gave it up, and the faith dip she has never spoken about publicly until now. This one is less of a structured episode and more of a venting session, and that is exactly what makes

This conv
How To Finally Live In Alignment
In this episode, Leana gets vulnerable about the chapter she is currently in — one full of new opportunities, real overwhelm, and the uncomfortable work of becoming who you are meant to be. She opens up about what it actually feels like when a blessing is also a challenge, why realignment is never a clean process, and the daily habits and mindset shifts that are helping her stay the course.

The Lonely Chapter: Letting Go of Pressure, Finding Your Purpose
In this episode I am being more open than I have ever been. I am talking about the lonely chapter I am currently in, why I stopped looking for love, what happened when I did, and the real reason so many of us feel lonely that has nothing to do with not having a partner.
Leana gets into:
Why she was lowering her standards and talking to people she knew were wrong for her

The Reason Behind Being Human
I’ve been holding this in for a long time.
This is the first time I’m truly speaking without filters, without pressure to be perfect, and without trying to fit my thoughts into 60 seconds.
In this first episode of Being Human, I’m sharing why I started this podcast, what I’ve been struggling with behind the scenes, and what this space really means to me.
For a long time, I felt like I couldn’t
Gary Brecka Spent 20 Years Predicting Death. Now He's Reversing It.

Welcome to Being Human
Welcome to Being Human, I’m Leana Deeb and I am so happy you’re here. I built this podcast because I myself was looking for a space where people of all walks of life can connect, let down their guards and be their most authentic selves and find their similarities even when the world tells you you’re different. I couldn’t find that space, so I built it. I hope you are able to join this journey with
