Welcome to the Creatives in Focus Podcast. The podcast where we discuss the journey to excellence and creating for impact.
This is episode 31
This week I had a conversation with Kashmira Bechoo. Kashmira is a South African Poet and Spoken Word Artist. She started her freelance career in editing, proof-reading and copywriting in 2019, and has since gone on to work with international and national authors, organisations, and committees.
The Durban Review selected her poems W.O.M.A.N - Warrior of Man and Nature, and A Foreigner for publication in their first women’s anthology: ‘Drumbeats from Africa’ (2019). Chasing Butterflies, a poem that explores death, and grief was selected for publication in a women’s empowerment book: Womandla! (2019).
What do we speak about in this episode?
- Poetry as a tool for impact and empowerment
- Mental health and the art of vulnerability
- Literacy development through poetry and storytelling
