How Jazzmin Jiwa Became a Global Journalist and Documentary Filmmaker

Jazzmin Jiwa is an international journalist and documentary
filmmaker. She is also the founder of Stories of Survival, an
independent online project that shares the stories of survivors
from all over the world. Jazzmin, who originally hails from the
U.K. and now resides in California, dove into the journalism
field after realizing that was her passion rather than artificial
intelligence which she studied in university. Her decades-long
career in both print and broadcast journalism has allowed her to
travel the world, particularly reporting in war-torn countries in
the Middle East and Africa. In this episode, Jazzmin shares the
skills and lessons that helped her in her career, tips on
breaking into journalism, mental health, and life-defining
moments.
