This week’s guest, Taylor Lee, is a self-taught abstract painter who creates artwork inspired by self-image, self-love, and body positivity. Painting became a form of art therapy for Taylor while they were in treatment for an eating disorder. We talk about authenticity in business and why life is better with color.
