Tracee Ellis Ross Is Absolutely The High Note Of Our Week!

Yes, Girl! - June 5, 2020

She’s back! Y’all know Tracee Ellis Ross (@traceeellisross) is an ESSENCE sweetheart! This conversation was so full of love, honesty, and light - we didn’t want it to end! We talked about everything from the heartbreak of what’s going on in the US today to celebrating ourselves, to...our favorite ways to drink tequila! We love that Tracee has etched in stone two of our favorite, empowered Black woman leads (shout out to Joan Carol Clayton, Esquire and Dr. Rainbow Johnson!) and she’s now given us another Black woman lead to cheer for with her new film, The High Note. Listen to the episode and let us know 1) How you are finding and holding on to joy, 2) if you’ve seen the film and what you think! #YesGirlPodcast!
