Hashing Out the Law

In Season 1 of Hashing Out the Law, I interviewed international model and actress ⁠Jasmin Shojai⁠ at the height of her modeling career. Known as Australia’s Top Glamour Model of 2017 and 2018, a Playboy Playmate, and a cover model featured in publications such as FHM, Maxim, and Playboy Croatia, Jasmin shared insights into the world of international modeling and entertainment.

Jasmin opens up about what inspired her to pivot toward the law, the challenges of reinventing herself, and what it’s like transitioning from the public spotlight to the demanding world of legal studies. This conversation explores identity, ambition, reinvention, and the surprising paths that can lead someone toward the law.
