Welcome to day 23 of #29DaysofMagic! We have such a great conversation with Tricia Okin, Founder of Tricia Okin Studios. We talk about her incredible career journey, and how her 'job title' has evolved a lot over the years, going from print, to webpage, to so much more. We talk about the opening of genuine empathy. Tricia talks about her time living in and around west Europe where she has noticed that people, when realizing that she is an African American treat her different than before when thinking that she was just from Africa. We talk about her childhood, her family escaping a coup that happened in Nigeria. We talk about how different upbringings bring about different people and mentalities, and different doesn't mean better, different just means different. We talk about Tricia beginning to make art again, and so much more!
