Let’s Talk Health Equity, Youth Leadership, Self-Esteem & Creativity
In this episode, we are joined by Reagan Portis, Madison, Mississippi resident, and current 9th grader. In addition to excelling at her schoolwork, Reagan is an artist, an author, a photographer, and the owner of a mixed media technology company, Rea and Ray Productions. Her book, Just for Girls Coloring and Activity Book: Building Confidence in Black Children was created to uplift the confidence and self-image of little Black and Brown girls everywhere and show that beauty is found within themselves.
We discuss the challenges of having a positive self-image in our current culture, opportunities for self-reflection, and empowerment, and the importance of diversity in our academic and personal lives. Reagan shares her excitement about creating spaces for others to share their talents and encourages young people to explore avenues to be entrepreneurs.
