A Migrant\u2019s Journey to Belonging, Purpose and Identity","description":"What does it mean to truly belong?   In this episode of My Migrant Soul, host Imran Abul Kashem sits down with Nasz Khan - a woman whose journey begins with displacement and evolves into deep purpose.     From growing up questioning her identity in Singapore to becoming a cornerstone of community life in Seabrook, Nasz\u2019s story is a powerful reminder that belonging isn\u2019t something you find - it\u2019s something you build.   This is a conversation about courage, conviction, and choosing to show up for others, again and again.   Episode Overview Nasz Khan has spent nearly two decades quietly shaping the heart of Seabrook. Since settling in Australia in 2005, she has led initiatives that bring people together - from founding the Seabrook Community Gardens to helping develop Homestead Run Park, organising ANZAC Dawn Services, and even sparking the idea behind the local shopping centre mural. During COVID, she stepped in where it mattered most - delivering meals, lifting spirits, and reminding people they weren\u2019t alone. Alongside her community work, Nasz is also an autism teacher at the Western Autistic School, where she champions a belief-led approach - seeing potential where others may not. In This Episode, We Explore: Growing up feeling \u201cin between\u201d cultures and identities The moment that led her to choose Australia - without knowing anyone What it really takes to build community from the ground up Why small actions often create the biggest ripple effects Her philosophy in autism education - belief, expectation, and care The darker side of systems that lose sight of purpose Navigating workplace challenges, bias, and standing your ground The importance of bridging cultures, not staying within them  Key Takeaway \u201cDon\u2019t stay in your silo. Be the bridge. That\u2019s how communities are built.\u201d Special Thanks to Our Partners: This podcast is proudly supported by our incredible partner businesses: Westend Business Hub, Westend Digital, Westend Photography, Westend Podcast, and WeConnect Their continued support helps bring these powerful stories to life and fosters a platform where voices, experiences, and communities can be shared.
