What if maintaining a childlike wonder could be your secret superpower in connecting with youth? Join us as we welcome Sophia Jackson, an inspiring child and youth worker with a vibrant passion for the arts. Sophia's journey is a testament to how creativity can weave into a fulfilling career in child and youth care. Listen as she recounts her experiences running a summer camp and working alongside her mentor, Coco Nicole, emphasizing the importance of seeing the world through a child's eyes.
Curious about the dynamics of community engagement and the power of grassroots initiatives? Sophia's candid discussion on her run for school trustee in Brampton sheds light on the unexpected paths that lead to embracing school environments and advocating for change. From monetizing art for community artists to the nuts and bolts of a local election campaign, Sophia shares the invaluable lessons learned and how narrowly missing the trustee seat only strengthened community bonds and visibility.
Representation matters, especially in art and literature. Discover how Sophia's coloring books, "Soulful Colour presents Zeke and Zara" and "Empower Flow," are making waves in promoting mental health and menstrual awareness. Her passionate dialogue on the therapeutic benefits of colouring and the impactful representation in children's books is both enlightening and motivating. Dive into her creative process, rooted in poetry and music, and learn about her ambitious plans to expand Soulful Colour on a global scale, continuing her mission to educate, inspire, and advocate for crucial social issues.
