Just lovely ❤️ thank you for sharing your mum with us. And thank you mum for sharing your story with us! So true about paying extra care to those who may not feel comfortable communicating. Does not mean they don’t have a voice. 🙏🏽

Your ‘luckiest aspect’ question totally took me by surprise!; sobering to consider what ‘terrifying and traumatic’ really meant in post-revolution Iran; so powerful to hear your Mum talk about the importance of listening to the unheard and how diversity enriches us all; and that LA photo is simply gorgeous :)
