Summary
Sarah Bahbah is a Palestinian visual artist and director whose work has reached hundreds of millions around the world. Her signature style blends film photography with raw, confessional text capturing the thoughts people feel but rarely say out loud.In this episode, we sit down with Sarah to talk about healing, identity, and what it means to turn pain into something powerful. We get into growing up between cultures, navigating shame, reclaiming her voice, and how her art became both survival and transformation.She breaks down her creative process, from writing intrusive thoughts in her notes to building cinematic worlds that allow her (and others) to process trauma. We also dive into her independent journey, walking away from the traditional art system, and building a model that made her work accessible while reaching tens of thousands globally.This conversation goes deep into emotional regulation, relationships, spirituality, and what it really means to heal not just as an artist, but as a person.Subscribe for more conversations like this.
