Episode description

In this artist summer series episode, OG Millie's transformative journey as an NYC-based artist unfolds. A retinal detachment in 2012 became a pivot point where she uncovered her deep passion for art. Millie’s artistry spans from intimate portrayals on vintage mirrors to murals symbolizing breaking free of insecurities and messages of rebirth and regrowth. Committed to pushing boundaries, she finds a balance between her art and giving back, often drawing inspiration from her travels and nature. Millie emphasizes the raw honesty of sharing one's work, embracing both its empowering and vulnerable facets.
