Mohammed Diouf, story of Political Asylee

Welcome to Immigrant Conversations, the podcast where we explore the untold stories behind migration — stories of courage, sacrifice, and transformation.

In this powerful episode, Mehran speaks with Mohammed Diouf Heubo, a life coach and immigration and wellness advocate who fled political persecution in Cameroon. His migration journey took him through dangerous terrain, harrowing experiences in U.S. detention centers, and ultimately, to a place of healing and purpose.

In this episode we explored:

  • Mohammed’s escape from political violence
  • The emotional and physical toll of detention centers in the U.S.
  • The resilience and the flexibility it takes to be a refugee
  • The misconceptions around immigration and refugees
