In Her Shoes: Carri Twigg

Carri Twigg understands how storytelling shapes our reality. She’s the Co-founder and Head of Development for Culture House media, a Black, Brown and woman owned production company that centers the voices of those most marginalized in the industry. Culture house is behind the series, Growing up on Disney plus which came out earlier this fall. It follows the lives of ten young adults as they navigate their adolescent years. Most recently, Culture House produced Hair Tales on Hulu and OWN, which tells the story of Black hair through the decades and features women like Issa Rae, Oprah and Ayanna Presley as they walk us through their own personal hair journeys. We talked to Carri about shifting careers, how she started Culture House and the importance of telling our own stories. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
