Gelareh Darabi is a fascinating human and storyteller. This eloquent multi-platform journalist, documentary filmmaker, and international correspondent has worked with National Geographic’s Explorer series, Al Jazeera English, and other media outlets, focusing on science and the environment.
She grew up a lover of nature, thanks to frequent outdoor walks with her family when she was a child. Her natural curiosity and love for oration led her into investigative journalism, taking her to six continents and over 20 countries. She’s covered the Iran water crisis, the Australian bushfires, indigenous resistance in the Amazon, and more.
In this conversation, we explore her familial dynamics, her deep interest in the mystical and spiritual (a compass that's guided her in life), what makes a good journalist, one universal truth she's learned about people from different cultures, and more.
