This week on Yes But Why Podcast, we are featuring comedian and podcaster, Ivy Le.

Ivy Le is a Vietnamese American comedian and writer based in Austin, Texas. Ivy has performed at Bedpost Confessions, Coldtowne Theatre, the Decatur Book Festival, Kollaboration, and more!

Ivy is the host and creator of the Spotify podcast, “FOGO: Fear of Going Outside: a nature show by the most reluctant host ever”. Ivy was selected to be one of the 10 out of 18,000 applicants to go through Spotify’s first SoundUp podcast accelerator for women of color. She is also widely published as a reporter, a poet, and an advocate on immigration and civil rights issues.

In our conversation, I talk to Ivy about what motivates her as an artist. She tells me she is obsessed with language and that makes so much sense. Ivy is pretty much always writing!

We talk about money and how that can be a barrier to entry for creative aspirations. Not everyone can just go out and take acting classes or dance lessons. But “you don’t need to have money to become a great writer,” she says. I love how Ivy so confidently and efficiently knocks down every obstacle in her way. Ivy currently writes in all the work she does – podcasting, public relations, journalism, comedy!

Ivy tells me about the Diversity Initiative that gave her the push to start her podcasting project. We discuss current day gatekeeping and the lack of opportunities for women of color in creative fields. Despite the uphill battle, Ivy gushes about what a great and supportive community she made connecting with the other women from the Spotify SoundUp podcast accelerator. She really makes the most out of every adventure she has.

Speaking of adventure, Ivy tells me about how her love of nature shows inspired her to create her podcast, “FOGO: Fear of Going Outside.” She talks about raising the money with Kickstarter and the dedication it requires to connect with the fans even before the project is made. She is an expert at marketing though, so FOGO podcast is loved by indoor people and outdoor people alike!

Support Ivy Le by listening to her podcast, “FOGO: Fear of Going Outside” on Spotify TODAY! All episodes of Season 1 are currently available!

You can also support Ivy’s continuous artistic growth by booking her to perform stand-up comedy in your next show OR by hiring her to act in your movie! She is seeking representation as a writer, a comic, and an actress.

Returning guest, Arianna Fox, shared details about her relaunch of teen sci-fi/fantasy book, Sabre Black, and how the storyline within brings the readers to find the good within themselves. It journeys the question, "should I fight tradition or what I know is right?" The book is not only entertaining, but it inspires the reader to overcome the cloud of the past that would define their future.
Rebecca and Arianna chatted about tricks and techniques to memorizing speeches and Arianna spoke about her recent creation and presentation of a business plan. The conversation brings encouragement for those of all ages, especially those who are younger, to learn about the benefits of creating a business plan and how understanding "business," can be beneficial no matter what industry or type of career path one goes on.
Insight into the feature film, Box in the Basement, is given by Arianna who landed a lead role in the film. She described how the film is a sci-fi about a mysterious box with a warning about the risk of traveling into your own future. The entire episode motivates the audience to transform themselves with tips on using writing prompts for inspiration to write or even reduce stress. Arianna also talked about how she had been doing a lot of voice-over work and revved up the excitement around the fact that there are voice opportunities for any type of voice.
Arianna is known across the region as a little ball of joy and energy! She is a girlpreneur, bestselling double author, motivational speaker, actress, voiceover talent, and teen influencer who may come in a small package, but her ideas are as revolutionary as they are wide-reaching. For several years now, she has devoted her life and much of her time to reaching out to others to spread messages of hope, inspiration, and self-confidence. Making a positive impact upon others and helping them rock their lives to maximum potential is part of this upcoming girlpreneur's goal for her interactions with kids, tweens, teens, adults, and all. Arianna's bubbly personality will engage and inspire you.
