This week, we’re thrilled to have Yasmine with us. Yasmine Mathurin is a Haitian-Canadian award-winning writer and director (+ occasional producer). Her first feature documentary film, ONE OF OURS, won the Hot Docs Special Jury Prize in 2021 and was nominated for three Canadian Screen Awards in 2022 for best writing, best directing, and best feature documentary. Yasmine is an incredibly driven and celebrated creative, who seemingly never stops. But what we’ve learned is that on top of building a creative career, Yasmine lives with and manages a chronic autoimmune disease. She shares with us ways in which self-care is not only needed but essential.
