Unmute the Silent Pain | Heba El-Tamawy | TEDxEtTagammo
When silence surrounds a painful truth, courage becomes a responsibility.
In this deeply moving talk, Heba El Tamawy breaks the silence around one of society’s most sensitive and misunderstood issues — child harassment. She shifts the conversation from blame and punishment to understanding and protection.
Through empathy, awareness, and powerful storytelling, Heba invites us to see the unseen — the emotional and psychological struggles that make children vulnerable — and reminds us that true protection begins at home, with connection, communication, and love. Heba El-Tamawy is a Writer and physiologist. She is passionate about guiding individuals and families toward emotional healing, conscious living, and stronger connections. With her blend of psychology, storytelling, and practical coaching, Heba inspires people to transform challenges into opportunities for growth and self-discovery.
