Feeling overwhelmed about the never-ending work of activism in our world? You’re not alone. On this episode of Feminism NOW, host Christian F. Nunes talks with Alyssa Milano about using her platform as a celebrity to affect positive change and amplify important issues, the illusion of work-life balance, staying present in the moment as a practice in mindfulness, celebrating small wins, and the importance of intersectional practices in working towards true equality.
With grace and humor, Christian and Alyssa tackle big themes in activism—from showing up with integrity and authenticity to acknowledging your limitations and learning to make an impact without being attached to the outcome.
Alyssa Milano is an actor, an activist, an author, a feminist, and a UNICEF ambassador.
She is the host of the podcast “Sorry Not Sorry.” You can find her on Instagram @Milano_Alyssa @sorrynotsorrypod and on X (formerly Twitter) and TikTok @Alyssa_Milano.
