In this week’s episode, actress, comedian, writer, and director Sarah Jones is the embodiment of turning rejection into alignment. As a multicultural, Black artist who always felt like she was too much, she was boxed into minor, stereotypical roles in the entertainment industry. So, she created her own Tony Award-winning cast of diverse characters in her one-woman shows. Now she’s taking her understanding of the power of self-acceptance to the next level in this moment of extreme polarization through her podcast “America, Who Hurt You?”, spreading the message that the only way we can heal our country’s division is through deep, unconditional love for ourselves and each other.
