What Happened After?: Talks On Post-"Life Happens" Growth Vivian Nunez

This is a mini-episode leading up to the 2020 election. I sat down with Laura Jimenez, a NYC-native and the National Latino Engagement Director for Biden 2020 to talk through the importance of a single vote. More than though, we talked through how your belief in yourself and the power of your voice connects deeply with how you exercise that belief.

This is a mini-episode leading up to the 2020 election. I sat down with Sarah Galvez and we talked through the reality of what “day to day” looks like on a campaign, how rapid the rapid fire response moment around the fly in the Vice Presidential debate actually was, but most importantly, how to make sure you feel empowered to GOTV this November.

We moved! We made the jump from NYC to Portland, but more than a jump it was a result of a series of baby steps that built up to this big move and the big shift that came with it. This week's episode is an update on our time in Portland so far and how it's impacted my mental health.

Grief is a popular topic right now because of COVID, because of 2020, and because of how life is unfolding for us as individuals and as a collective. “Grief” as a universal concept is defined as deep sorrow, but on an individual level, it’s a constant, undeniable reality. It looks like sorrow sometimes and like laughter others. On this episode, I chat with Claire Bidwell Smith, an author and grief expert, who uses her own lived experiences with loss to draw connection points with others walking similar paths.

Whether you’re hoping to understand more of your own grief or to know how to best be there for a friend, I hope this episode is helpful.

Lately I've been thinking about the importance of having faith in something outside of yourself, so call it synchronicity that Meli and I tried to answer how we've both been coping with these bigger questions. We look at faith specifically too as a pillar to hold onto as we navigate life as creatives.

From the minute I hit record, Alica brought her whole self to this episode and let us in. We talked about grief, how coping mechanisms can shift, and that belonging and connection can come from sharing the details of your lived experiences. 

Most of all we landed on a very big truth — to be vulnerable online doesn't mean that you're sharing all of yourself, it means you're sharing the humanizing parts that you can put into words.
