Episode Description
Founding Member Tina Reynolds has started over more times than most people dare to count. Founder of Uptown Studios and Activist of the Year, she has spent 30 years building something that looks a lot like a life fully lived: a career rooted in community, a practice of bold authenticity, and a willingness to begin again whenever beginning again was what the moment asked for.
She came out at 44. She turned setbacks into direction. In this conversation, she shares what that kind of reinvention actually requires, and why resilience and creativity are not personality traits you’re born with, but choices you make over and over again.
“Life is short, get to it. You don’t take anything with you.”
