    Dec 24 2024
    A new episode of Roqe focused on the psychological concept of narrative identity, how we shape the story of who we are, and the symbolic and behavioural masks we wear as a product of our environment, our past, and our fears. Jian is joined by professional coach and personal branding expert, Dr. Shahab Anari, and certified life coach, Tannaz Nouri, for a conversation that ranges from the theoretical to the very personal, and specifically how Iranians develop their mask-wearing identities due to culture and history. Plus, Jian kicks the show off with a related essay entitled, “Don’t Judge Iranians for Wearing Masks,” and Pegah joins for a chat about the very Persian experience of fully celebrating Christmas!

    Roqe Ep. 350 - PANEL: Is the Trudeau Government Betraying Iranian Immigrants?
    Dec 13 2024
    A new episode of Roqe focused on the plight of recent Iranian immigrants in Canada after a decision by the federal government to roll back its immigration policies that invited millions of newcomers in the last three years. Temporary residents, like international students and work permit holders, are now being told there’s no room for them anymore - and this will directly affect many Iranian newcomers. We convene a panel with respected Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant Mehran Aminian and Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant and member of the Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada, Houshang Lotfi, joining Jian in the Roqe Studio. Plus, Jian kicks off the show with an essay entitled, “Is the Trudeau Government betraying Iranian immigrants?”
