Superpowers With Tasha - Nicky Young and Tarek Ghouri: Raising A Superhero

For the final episode of series 1, Tasha is joined by her parents, Nicky Young and Tarek Ghouri. They open up about their experiences raising a child with a superpower and share their advice for families going through something similar - what worked for them, care plans they took and how they stayed hopeful.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tasha Ghouri was watched daily by over three million people as part of the country’s most popular reality series - Love Island - and became a breakout star. But what sets Tasha apart is her superpower. Something which once made her feel like an outcast is now her greatest source of strength and community. Tasha’s superpower is her identity as a Deaf woman, but what’s yours? In this podcast Tasha invites special guests to celebrate the things that make us different.
Superpowers with Tasha is proudly sponsored by Cadbury's Fingers' 'Sign with Fingers Big and Small' campaign, in partnership with the National Deaf Children's Society.

Tarek and Nicky you are incredible parents and had to fight for this wonderful young womans rights. It is so important as Ive supported others thats parents didnt, and the outcome is totally different. Its always been my pleasure to have you all in our lives. Glad Tasha didnt bring up stripping her clothes off in nursery in a tantrum 😂. Love you all. Loved the whole series. Brilliant, look forward to more. Xx

I know your dad from school. Really emotional episode. Made me cry. Well done you and family ghouri. Keep smashing it x

I loved this, especially the discussion about ableism. I hate the internet. People can just be awful. I guess it's easy when you're behind the safety of a screen. Most of those people wouldn't have the guts to say any of that to someone's face.

Love this conversation, your parents are amazing and raised a beautiful daughter ❤

[@IvanananaM]

Heartwarming episode (the last of the series, I'm sad) but it was good to hear your parents experiences with you and I'm sure it will help a lot of people in the same situation. You made me cry like 3 times in this episode seriously, very lovely, let me tell you one more time that you are amazing. Don't even let those comments get to you "Be able to keep seeing the light in the darkness" you are amazing Tasha, I'm truly thankful to be your fan ❤

Wishing you all good things with this podcast and life in general. I’m glad you build rest into your schedule as you do so much out there in this world! It was lovely to “meet” your parents, share some feelings, hear solid advice and good stories too.

What a lovely heartwarming podcast Tasha. Honest, open, helpful to others and above all showed the love, affection and pure pride from your Mum and Dad. Their difficult choices made on your future coupled with your own determination is what has made you the lovely woman you are today. Wonderful. I know Cadbury has been your podcast sponsors and very well done them. I sincerely hope they recognise the good you are doing and continue in their sponsorship. Every Superpowers with Tasha have all been real top class with excellent guests but your Mum and Dad with You as host was in my opinion the best. Well done Tahsa you are making a huge benificial difference to so many people and I hope you continue.

What a sweet chat !!!

Tasha youre doing amazing absolutely love this podcast ❤ its actually helping me through a really tough time (suffer with 2 chronic pain conditions) and its inspiting to hear people talk about how they manage their conditions. I alwyas say it but everyone is battling a fight you know nothing about, granted some more life impacting than others, but we can all learn from each other and they key is empathy. I love your parents ❤

[@janeferguson191]

A truly amazing and inspiring chat Tasha with your parents. You are all so warm and supportive of each other. So real

[@alanaduncanxo]

[@Chloeanderson99]

We love you Tasha this episode was emotional but at the same time it was amazing to watch and your parents have raised such a amazing daughter your beautiful inside and out we will always love you no matter what 💕💕

[@ServantofYeshuatheTruth]

it's absolutely beautiful to see you together with your mum and dad. May I say how supportive, strong, and loving your parents are. Beautiful to see. it's good and comforting to know that you have received all the help needed. You are an incredibly strong woman also true and kind. I cant help but think of how blessed you are with such loving parents, especially I say this as I grew up without a dad or a stable mother figure. To see the tears of your parents and how much they love you its filling my heart with joy, to know that there still are out there strong, loving parents like yours. God bless your family and thank you for showing such a strong message of hope for everyone who watches this. We all need it
