HEROINE is back 🌊🐚

Safia Elhillo is a Sudanese American poet whose strikingly beautiful debut novel Home Is Not a Country is deeply informed by these questions of belonging, nostalgia, and identity. I don’t say this lightly, when I say I have one of the most interesting and creative HEROINE seasons in store for you. These are deep, authentic, meaningful conversations here to help you make connections in your brain about your own creative work and the heroine’s journey. Get ready to be inspired. Interviews will begin airing on August 12th and will run until mid-September. It’ll be a short and sweet season of about 6-8 episodes so please devour them all, re-listen to them, and share them widely as they are all gifts for creative women everywhere.
