153 - Aida Mandić on the Use of Creativity to Get through Your Nightmares

Shooting it RAW with Ran Elfassy

01-03-2023 • 57 mins

Buckle up, this one's huge. I connected with Aida Mandić and we dove into her experience as a survivor and creator. From her childhood and family trauma linked to the war in Bosnia, her journey as a refugee across the world, to landing as an immigrant in the USA, she shared the colour of her life and times.

Amazingly, thankfully, she found the power of creative expression. A testament to that special impulse in people to use creative expression as the route for making sense of the world, she shared how she's written and published 100-plus books. 100!

Listen in and be inspired. What an amazing human.
