I grew up watching women sharing their personal stories at The Oprah Winfrey Show. I spent time watching CNN with Christiana Amanpour asking controversial questions to even more controversial world leaders. I paid attention to author James Baldwin always speaking truth to power, and Louis Theroux from the BBC during Weird Weekends. I’ve been greatly inspired by them and many others, but especially by the way Television can be used as a medium to transform lives. I found it very refreshing to use an extremely powerful medium like that in such a way that it can touch lives, inform us about something we didn’t know yet, or to let us see that we might be more connected to one another and those we call “strange” than we might think sometimes. To start a conversation from there. Those incredible people who came before me influenced my vision of how I want my platform to be like. I hope you stick with us.
