Award-winning musician, activist, and Rise Above Justice Movement co-founder Gwen Levey joins Working Girl for a deeply honest conversation about survivorship, activism, reproductive justice, LGBTQ+ rights, and the emotional reality of doing this work in today’s political climate.

Gwen shares how the overturning of Roe v. Wade changed the trajectory of her life and music career, what it means to build community online while facing constant backlash, and why rest, self-care, and connection are essential for anyone fighting for change.

We also talk about surviving sexual violence, intersectional feminism, social media censorship, country music, political awakening, and how ordinary people can start getting involved in their communities.

This conversation is raw, thoughtful, empowering, and one I think so many people need right now.

What does climate justice actually look like when it’s happening in your own community?

This week, I’m joined by Ariana Akbari, Executive Director of Climate Justice Texas, an environmental advocacy and conservation education organization based on the petrochemical front lines of Southeast Texas.

We talk about why climate change often feels distant until it becomes personal, the challenges of getting people to care, and why starting the conversation might be the most powerful place to begin.

This one will shift how you think about climate justice and your role in it.

Immigration is one of the most talked about issues in the U.S.
It is also one of the most misunderstood.

In this episode, I sit down with immigration attorney Angelica Jimenez, Esq., Managing Attorney and Founder of the Law Offices of Angelica Jimenez, to break down what the system actually looks like for the people living it every day.

We talk about what “doing it the right way” really means, why immigration is far more complex than paperwork, and how politics directly impacts families trying to stay together.

This conversation is honest, eye-opening, and one I think everyone needs to hear.
