This episode hits differently after #mentalhealthawarenessweek as well as the passing of Mother's Day. Our guest is hairstylist and entrepreneur Taylor Hooge. She shares with us what she loves most about hair as well as some thwarted dreams surrounding motherhood that happened while launching her career. We get candid about grief, what it is and how we can move through it, and we celebrate her victories and return to art despite the obstacles her circumstances threw her way. I hope that this episode allows you to feel heard if you've ever experienced miscarriage, or any loss that left you feeling gutted. CuppaJen believes that staying positive does not have to be synonymous with ignoring pain, but rather we hope to empower you to rise and work through whatever challenges you may be facing, especially if you're an artist!  

Trigger warning ⚠️ Please note that this episode addresses potentially traumatic subject matter pertaining to miscarriage and emotional health. If this is unsafe for you for any reason, please love yourself first and skip this episode. Our only desire is to encourage and help you feel heard.
