In today's episode, host Jessica Jordan Ping interviews Autumn Breon, a full-time artist based in Los Angeles. The conversation touches on the importance of access to abortion and reproductive health, the barriers faced by marginalized communities, and the power of storytelling and data in creating awareness and change. Autumn discusses how she utilized a negative experience of being told she couldn't pursue a career in STEM to empower herself and seek out supportive communities. She emphasizes the importance of representation and having a tribe of people who see and support your fully realized self. Autumn and Jessica also share their strategies for self-care, including therapy, journaling, and surrounding themselves with people who elevate them. Autumn encourages individuals to name their fears and explore the positive possibilities, reminding them that a 'no' is not a failure.
