Rising Troublemaker

Cortney Wills sits down with NY Times best-selling author, speaker, and podcast host Luvvie Ajayi Jones to discuss her latest book “Rising Troublemaker,” an incredibly necessary fear-fighting manual for teens at a time when they need it most. The ladies will also discuss the importance of taking control of our mental health, why therapy should be free for all marginalized people, and how content on big and small screens can help shape the way young people see the world and themselves. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
