No matter where she's at, or what she's doing, her mission is to inspire and make underrepresented communities feel seen and valued through storytelling. In this week’s episode, Johanna talks about the expectations placed on her as a Dominican eldest daughter living in NYC and how defying those expectations led her to become her most authentic self. Growing up, she had plenty of people around her dimming her light. They told her she was too loud, too talkative, and too opinionated. All the things that would make her an amazing full-time writer and content creator.
