Shirin Conversations
A tribute to her late grandmother Shirin, her podcast Shirin Conversations exists to empower younger and future Iranian Americans on an accessible platform. Host, Marjaneh Peyrovan, fills the vacancy in the digital space to include Iranian women in the collective conversation by creating a directory of "sweet" interviews that highlight Iranian women's triumphs through trials within their careers, education, upbringing, and their connection through their heritage.

Marjaneh Peyrovan
On today's episode, I am joined by Shadi Pourkashef, a Mother, Composer, Conductor, Teacher, Founder, and Fierce Activist.
Shadi wants to create an impact in this world, and her true passion is to combat bullying by creating kinder and safer environments in schools through her non-profit, the Ability Awareness Project. You can see her pushing that further with her work as a Goodwill Ambassador in Laguna Beach and by teaching music at her new studio Anami where she provides private lessons that dive deeper into her student's abilities and talents.
