Today my friend, Dr. Michelle Reyes, and I are talking all about fairy tales. Michelle is a brilliant writer and teacher, who writes and speaks about faith, culture, and justice. She’s also a pastor’s wife, an activist, and the vice president of the Asian American Christian Collaborative. I’m truly honored that she joined me on The Couch to talk about fairy tales and how Disney keeps getting them wrong!
One thing before we dive in. Although we’re talking about fairy tales, this episode does have some mature themes that might not be a good fit for little ears. You, though, are certainly going to find it as fascinating as I did! I learned so much talking with Michelle, and I can’t wait to share this with you. So, get comfy and settle in because once upon a time, The Couch was all about fairy tales…
