Episode Synopsis

Send us a textHave you ever asked yourself what ‘home’ means to you? And did you ever stop to wonder how the words we use matter? From a young age, Baharak Bashmani, has had to navigate many worlds, each time moving for different reasons: from fleeing her 'home' country, to being resettled by the UNHCR, and later moving by choice. Every move comes with its own trials and tribulations, but ultimately her determination carries her through. As she makes her way through 7 countries, she reflects on her experiences and asks: What is 'home'? And where are my roots? Tune in for an honest conversation as Baharak reveals her notions of 'home', the nuances between fitting in and belonging, and as she reflects on her roots and nomadic lifestyle.Episode MentionsRooted in B — Baharak’s blog where she writes about her experience as a nomad, and reflects on home, identity, and belongingArticle Baharak wrote for the UNHCR on #WhatHomeMeans ”She feeds me, listens to my journeys and makes me feel right at home.”Zan, Zendegi, Azadi (Woman, Life, Freedom)Rooted in B Article written by Baharak about the current situation in IranUNHCR — The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees The UN Refugee Agency that resettled Baharak and her family to Finland. If you want to learn more about what is being done for refugees and how to help, find out more on their websiteThe Body Keeps the Score — Dr. Bessel van der KolkThe go-to book for deconstructing trauma, understanding what it means, and it's affects on both children and adults.
