In this episode I have the magical experience of hearing a bit of Jerrie Johnson's story. Jerrie is a truly magnetic, beam of light and a dream guest! We connected via Zoom for a deeply inspiring bicoastal chat. She told me about 5-year-old Jerrie and her poetry, her earliest creative masterpiece--her classroom's bulletin board, how Ntozake Shange's 'For colored girls who have considered suicide / when the rainbow is enuf" opened her up to her calling as an actor, her enchanted journey to the MFA program at ACT, unlearning colonized thought, the joy she finds in "out-manifesting" herself (like an INCREDIBLE DOUBLE booking right after grad school), how she maintains her expansive state and stays connected to source, the importance of FUN in her life, the earth's need for higher empathy, the magic of her alkaline diet, her abundance of book babies, creating from a specific sense of truth and authenticity and MUCH more. Prepare to feel ignited...
Keep an eye out for Jerrie recurring on Good Trouble on Freeform, and leading on a new Tracy Oliver comedy series coming to Amazon.
