Today I speak with Naaz who shares her journey from Iran as a teenager to the rainforests of BC. She speaks of her path of healing and reconnecting with cultural roots, as she passes on customs and language to her daughter. We chat about smoking Esfand, soothing Chai Nabat, Iranian grieving practices, and more. Naaz wishes to give a shout out to her setar teacher, esteemed musician Mahmood Schricker at https://www.linkmusiclab.com/. Show notes artwork by Nasser Ovissi.
