Author: with May Globus April 9, 2021 Duration: 46:25
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.

There’s a particular texture to a life built around creating something meaningful, whether that’s a business, a work of art, or a new path forward. The Craft with May Globus pulls back the curtain on those lives through unhurried, intimate dialogues. May sits down with a diverse range of creators, founders, and pioneers, but the focus here is less on glossy success stories and more on the raw material of their journeys. You’ll hear the nuances of their creative process, the pivotal moments in their personal backstory, and how their philosophy shapes their daily existence. It’s an ongoing exploration of the shared humanity behind different kinds of work. What makes this podcast uniquely immersive is its commitment to being an audio-visual experience. Each conversation is accompanied by rich, editorial-style photography that provides a deeper, more sensory connection to the guest and their world. Think of it like a beautifully composed magazine feature that you can listen to, where the images and the dialogue work in concert. Tuning into this podcast feels like gaining quiet, privileged access to the minds of people who are thoughtfully shaping culture, one idea at a time.
