On this week’s show, we sit down with the phenomenal Jenny Lewis to explore her artistic journey — from cutting her teeth in the darkroom to capturing raw, empowering portraits of new mothers. We discuss the intimacy of photography, what it means to truly see someone, and how self-portraiture became the most confronting — and healing — work of her career. This is a deeply personal, honest and inspiring conversation.
