    Replay! Welcome to the Table: You Can Always Do it A Different Way

    My guest today is Pamela Bell, a mother, teacher, advocate, fashion activist and fearless feminist who joins us to discuss how she's managed to wear a thousand different hats in her one incredible lifetime while doing good for the world. She has done SO MUCH, but you'll have to listen in on our conversation to discover everything that Pamela has done with her creative power - she believes we are all more than a list of our professional achievements.  Our discussion goes deep - we dive into how fashion and creativity can support entire ecosystems of people traditionally overlooked by larger industries. She talks about finding supporters early on, letting creativity appear and surprise you no matter where you are in your life, and supporting the causes you believe in. Pamela shares her advice for figuring out what your causes are and how to begin your own advocacy, both for yourself and for others. Something I'm taking away from today? Running into NO is an opportunity to ask what else is possible. What's sticking with you? xxJo Find Pamela on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/pamelabellcollageworks/?hl=enFind her art at https://pamelabellcollageworks.com/Find prinkshop at https://prinkshop.com/Her recommendation to stay on top of women's news: https://jessica.substack.com/Organizations prinkshop supports:Seeds of Peace Autism Speaks Special Olympics National Institute for Reproductive Health Crisis Text Line Girl Up Kiva Every Mother Counts Planned Parenthood Everytown for Gun Safety She Should Run Eat My Words Instagram: Eat My Words TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@eatmywordsthepodcast?lang=en  Eat My Words Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@EatMyWordsthePodcastEat My Words Website: https://www.eatmywordsthepodcast.com

    Replay: Welcome to the Table: Don't Be the One Saying No to Yourself

    We are beyond thrilled to have Danielle Prescod joining the table today! Author of The Rules of Fortune and Token Black Girl, Danielle is a fifteen-year veteran of the beauty industry and cofounder of 2BG Consulting, which aids fashion and beauty brands and influencers on their anti-racism journeys. Danielle and I dive right in to their experiences with the fashion world and let us in on just how accurate The Devil Wears Prada really was. We talk about finding the energy and motivation to accomplish creative goals, letting someone else say no rather than being the one saying it to yourself, and the importance of fitting important things into our busy lives. Throughout our discussion, Danielle also shares about her belief in attention as currency, the invisible surveillance that keeps us locked in old patterns, reclaiming her time, and the intricacies of self care - is a face mask ever enough? The conversation flowed, and I hope you'll enjoy listening - let me know if you do! xxJohanna You can find Danielle on her website http://www.danielleprescod.com/On instagram https://www.instagram.com/danielleprescod/Token Black Girl here: https://www.amazon.com/Token-Black-Girl-Danielle-Prescod/dp/1542035163The Rules of Fortune here: https://www.amazon.com/Rules-Fortune-Novel-Danielle-Prescod/dp/166252014X Eat My Words Instagram: Eat My Words TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@eatmywordsthepodcast?lang=en  Eat My Words Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@EatMyWordsthePodcastEat My Words Website: https://www.eatmywordsthepodcast.com

    Replay! Welcome to the Table: You Don't Need Math!

    Join us for a RIOTOUS episode with Carrie Byalick, the most badass show business executive out there. Johanna and Carrie's friendship shines as they dive into the nitty gritty of success, sacrifice, and whether or not we actually need math to make it this day and age. Carrie brings us along her incredibly glamorous, high pressure career in the entertainment industry and talks about fostering a sense of self, knowing which doors to walk through, and learning by doing - "there is no lesson like an on the ground lesson." The late great Philip Seymour Hoffman once told Carrie, "come on, look where you are!" Now Carrie shares her wisdom with us, sharing what she does when she feels stuck, what she's learned about rest and balance, and that doing and saying the wrong things are the best teachers.

    Welcome to the Table: Girl Dinner on Summer as a Verb

    It finally feels like summer and I am going hard!  On today's episode I talk about the idea of "Summering" as something we can consciously do.  It is the things we choose to say yes to and the mindset we keep.  I share the things I am saying yes to this summer and I hope you will share with me how you are embracing the season.  I have been reading like a madwoman, so I am sharing my books recommendations too!  In the interest of summering hard, this will be the last episode for a few weeks, while we take some time to slow down, eat ice cream, watch fireflies and brew up new adventures.  We will be back in a few weeks with a whole new slew of amazing women telling their stories and so much more!  In the meantime, tell me what you are saying yes to in the comments! xx,Jo Eat My Words Instagram: Eat My Words TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@eatmywordsthepodcast?lang=en  Eat My Words Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@EatMyWordsthePodcastEat My Words Website: https://www.eatmywordsthepodcast.com
