About Ocu-Pasiòn

The Spanish language title "Ocu-Pasión" is a play on the blending of occupation and passion as a descriptor for creative practice. Through thoughtful dialogue, guests from all walks of life are able to authentically express who they are. The podcast serves as a platform to create community among Latin American people who currently cannot engage in creative expression due to circumstance, lack of access, or fear.
