  • Mindset Shifts, Navigating Uncertainty, & the Power of Purposeful Impact-Driven Work
    Jul 15 2025

    Join us on MUBS Spotlight as we sit down with Dr. Mirvat Termos, a Lebanese public health scientist, social worker, and founder of Mira Strategies and the Nouran Initiative. In this episode, Dr. Termos shares her journey from being a first-generation college graduate to becoming a leading voice in public health advocacy.

    We explore her transition from nutrition to public health after realizing she wanted to help entire communities rather than individual patients, her educational journey with the MUBS-Stanford program, and how losing her father, her biggest supporter who believed in women's empowerment, motivated her to create the Nouran Initiative, supporting domestic violence survivors through economic empowerment programs.
