Description

This week, Ry is joined by SAG-award-winning actress and mental health advocate Aesha Waks, aka Bubblegum Girl from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, for a powerful, wildly honest conversation on what it really means to grow up in the spotlight—and then fight your way back to yourself.


From red carpets to healing rooms, Aesha opens up about:


  • Body image in the entertainment industry

  • The emotional toll of performance culture

  • Reclaiming softness and sanity after chaos

  • Why she became a certified mental health counselor

  • And how she’s now helping others rewrite their stories, too.



This is for the girls who’ve ever felt like they had to perform strength when they were barely holding on. For the artists, the over-thinkers, and the soft ones learning to survive in a hard world.
