    S11 Ep13: A Thousand Lives: Interview with poet Parisa Salahshourian
    2025/05/22
    A Thousand Lives is about love (and heartbreak), art (and how it makes and breaks us) and the strength and endurance that come from life’s most challenging times. After riding each storm and coming out the other side – scars and all – we learn that life is so much more than existence: it is a relentless teacher and a sacred companion.

    We owe so much to our mistakes.

    Parisa Salahshourian was born in Isfahan (Iran) and lives in Madrid (Spain). She is a passionate Literature teacher, as well as a dedicated theatre actress/director and a creative writer. A Thousand Lives is her first poetry collection.
