Description
This week on Growing up with gal-dem, Charlie and Natty are joined by musician and DJ and the new host of Trippin's Roots & Ritual podcast, Yasmin Shahmir, as we discuss travel, ancestry, and ritual, as well as what it means to truly listen - not just to hear. Reading an extract from her journal, Yasmin reflects on femininity and duality and uses this as a jumping point to discuss the importance of using ritual and conversation to truly connect and listen to our elders and communities.   See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
