Jas Kirk sits down with global fitness leader and Nike Master Trainer alum Betina Gozo Shimonek for a vulnerable conversation on faith, identity, motherhood, postpartum and the versions of ourselves that discomfort shapes. They explore the wellness topics that often go unspoken, from cultural identity to spiritual grounding to the strength required to reinvent yourself. A powerful episode for anyone navigating change, purpose, or personal growth.

What does it mean to build your dream home—with intention? In this Comfortable Conversation, Jas Kirk is joined by Aala Buisier, visionary architect and partner at Buisier Development, whose Mediterranean-inspired approach to luxury has reimagined what sanctuary feels like in Dallas and beyond.

Rooted in her Libyan heritage, Aala’s work transforms architecture into art and homes into spaces that heal. But behind the success lies a deeper story—the discomfort that shaped her, the identity she refused to hide, and the discipline required to protect a vision built on soul.

Together they talk about:

💭 The power of honoring where you come from.

💭 What it takes to stay grounded when building big dreams.💭 Why stillness is just as important as ambition.

💭 And how true luxury begins with intention.

You’ll walk away from this conversation reminded that the homes we build — and the lives we shape — are both reflections of the same thing: who we’re becoming. The home you build should feel like peace.
