How can storytelling be used to heal? In episode 52 with Jazmine, a Lebanese-Australian a bilingual storyteller, we discuss the benefits of storytelling craft for both for the immigrant experience, but also as a medical tool. The daughter of a multilingual and multi-faith family, Jazmine is a domestic violence worker, writer, educator and oral bilingual storyteller and performer studying creative arts, and health and wellbeing. Through storytelling, she empowers marginalized communities using creative arts for therapy and education. Jasmine’s programs cater to refugees, children with various backgrounds, and those facing health issues. We also talk about how oral storytelling is at risk due to modern educational trends moving away from traditional narrative forms. Jasmine aims to preserve ancient wisdom by reviving Nasreddin stories which are rich in moral teachings to help foster empathy, connection, and resilience-building skills essential for personal growth beyond academic settings.
