#3 | Yasmina Khababi | "Changing the World Meal by Meal"

🌟 Journeys of Empowerment - Episode 3 🌟

In today’s episode, I sit down with Yasmina Khababi, founder of Freshtable and the Freshtable Foundation. Yasmina is a true rebel with a cause, leading efforts to create social inclusion through sustainable food solutions, while providing meaningful job opportunities to refugees and those distanced from the labor market. Her journey is one of turning frustration into passion, and in this conversation, she shares the pivotal moments that shaped her mission.

We explore how Yasmina's commitment to helping refugees was inspired by witnessing the injustice of seeing only very very few find work at their educational level. Yasmina also opens up about her personal quest to define purpose, the life altering moment at age 11 that sparked her drive to care for others, and the challenges of balancing being an introvert and an extrovert in her journey to impact.

Other highlights include:

  • The power of food to connect across cultures and how it became the heart of her mission;
  • Yasmina’s reflections on mental health, mental clarity, and why asking “what if I put myself first?” can be a transformative question;
  • How her mom served as her greatest role model and why Yasmina is grateful for every decision her mother made;
  • A look at the #ShareaMeal campaign, Freshtable’s latest initiative to donate 10,000 meals to those in need by 2024.

Yasmina’s resilience and her belief that “there’s nothing she can’t do” will leave you inspired to reflect on your own mission and role in creating change.

Just a few key takeaways:

  • The power of embracing both your highs and lows and making space for mental health;
  • How to turn feelings of injustice into a mission-driven passion that creates real impact;
  • Why community-driven initiatives are key to building a more inclusive and sustainable future.
