Unleashing Authenticity and Baring It All: The Art of Empowerment Photography and Retreats with Sarah LeaderMargo is joined by California photographer and retreat creator and host, Sarah Leader. Sarah received her first camera at the age of 8 and hasn’t stopped photographing since but her why and who she photographs has evolved several times over while still saying true to her own style and uniqueness. She found a passion for empowering women through the art of photography in 2010, which evolved into a retreat offering called "Persephone Unleashed.” Persephone Unleashed was born from Sarah’s belief that women are magic, as well as her fiery passion to document beautiful creatures as they break free of their chrysalis. Her approach to photographing women is founded on authenticity & self-compassion, and she practices it by showing up to that space with you, unapologetically herself — awkward, messy bits and all. Margo and Sarah discuss: Her personal journey with creativity and photography The inspiration and story behind Persephone Unleashed (stemming from her own Postpartum Depression) and how it’s evolved since its inception Using photography as a form of storytelling How she approaches photographing women with authenticity and self-compassion How she uses photography as a tool for empowering women and how self portraiture contributes to their sense of self and liberation Margo’s experience at Persephone Unleashed Creating an environment that encourages women to break free and embrace their authenticity Tips for how individuals can embrace their own unique beauty and tell their stories through photography (even if they're not professional photographers) The incredible team at Persephone Unleashed Upcoming events and more Mentioned: Exploring the Interwoven Journey of Spirituality and Creativity: Jade Chen on Shamanic Practices, the Potency of Nature, and Personal Evolution (Episode 174) Connect with Sarah: www.persphoneunleashed.com www.instagram.com/persephoneunleashed https://sarahkathleen.com/ Connect with Margo: www.windowsillchats.com www.instagram.com/windowsillchats www.patreon.com/inthewindowsill
