The Power of Girls With Alyssa Milano + Dawwie

*This episode was recorded in November of 2022.

In this inspiring eighth episode of the season, Alyssa Milano joins Kevin in studio in New York City.

Alyssa recalls her early acting career which began at the age of 13 on “Who's The Boss?” and what it was like being a child actor. They chat about her earliest experiences with activism at the age of 15 and her lifelong dedication to breaking stigmas. 

They are then joined for an inspiring conversation with Dina Heikel from The Dawwie Initiative in Egypt - a Unicef supported project focused on empowering young women in a culture that still seeks to silence them. She shares how the Dawwie initiative is giving young women (and young men) agency and confidence to stand up for themselves and each other.
