Walk First, Adult Later with Jasmin Savoy Brown
In this episode of The Unfolding, presented by The Loveland Foundation, host Rachel Keener sits down with actress and podcaster Jasmin Savoy Brown for a deeply personal and open conversation. Jasmin shares navigating her Saturn Return while weaning off antidepressants, and balancing rest and productivity.
They dive into why she created Today in Gay, a podcast celebrating joyful queer stories—offering listeners a space where lightness and community coexist. From Pride Month's roots to finding the right therapist, Jasmin’s Black, queer artist perspective brings honesty, warmth, and depth.
This isn’t just a conversation about mental health or identity—it’s about showing up for yourself and others, especially when joy feels like a radical act. If you’ve been craving a real, grounded, and uplifting conversation, this one’s worth a listen.
