Lauren Sanderson: I'm on This Earth to Be Abrasive, Off-Putting & IN YOUR FACE!

In this episode, I sit down with Lauren Sanderson, a rising queer artist who is breaking barriers and blowing up in the music scene. We dive deep into how Lauren started her journey, including a powerful TED Talk she gave when she was younger on the crucial dynamic for queer kids between teachers and parents—how vital it is to have a safe space and feel accepted and loved. We then talk about how she’s grown from that moment into a bold transformation era, where her new album is a declaration of unapologetic authenticity. We discuss the songs she’s most excited for, the meaning behind them, and how she’s no longer walking on eggshells for anyone! Lauren shares her experience growing up in a small town, the unwavering support of her accepting parents, and her big plans for the future. This episode is a reminder of the power in being present, proud, and fully yourself. Don’t miss Lauren’s album, out May 29th; make sure to check it out!
