I’ve known Jenny Mollet since she was a teenager, long before Broadway credits and standing ovations. Watching her grow into the woman and artist she is today has been one of the quiet joys of my life.

In this episode, Jenny and I talk about what it means to grow up adopted, transracially, and in the public eye. We talk about identity, belonging, and the moments when the world makes assumptions about who you’re allowed to be. Jenny shares her journey from being adopted as a newborn to becoming a Broadway performer, and how her adoption story shaped her confidence, her creativity, and her sense of self. This conversation is about embracing what makes you different, rejecting shame, and realizing that the very thing you once questioned about yourself might be the thing that gives you the most strength.

In this episode of The Fawcett Report, I talk with Emmy-nominated journalist and filmmaker Caitlin Keating, the force behind the award-winning Netflix documentary Take Care of Maya. Caitlin opens up about what drives her to tell difficult stories with depth, honesty, and purpose. From her years at People magazine to her current work on documentary films in Wise Fool Films, Caitlin shares how empathy, advocacy, and a sense of justice fuel her storytelling. If you’ve ever wondered how to use your voice to create change (or how to keep showing up when the stories you tell are heavy), this conversation will stay with you.

When I say this conversation floored me, I mean it.

Bridgette Mayer is one of the most respected gallery owners and curators in the country, but what you might not know is where she started. In today’s episode, Bridgette shares her story of growing up in and out of foster care, surviving trauma no child should ever face, and finding a lifeline in the most unexpected place: art. We talk about how she found her voice, how she learned to advocate for herself (and later, for artists), and how she built her own gallery from nothing. This is one of those episodes that reminds you that your past doesn’t define you, and that healing and success can exist in the same story. I hope you’ll listen. This one stays with you.
