Summary

Sophia Bush is no stranger to television. She was cast as Brooke Davis in the popular WB/CW drama series One Tree Hill while still in high school—a role she maintained for more than a decade. Since the show’s finale in 2012, Sophia has gone on to have major film roles in movies like John Tucker Must Die and The Narrows. And, from 2014 to 2017, she starred as Det. Erin Lindsay in the NBC drama series Chicago P.D. before leaving the show due to a challenging work environment (more on that in the show).In this episode of Girlboss Radio, Sophia sits down for an intimate chat with our special guest-host, Aurora James, the founder of Brother Vellies and the host of Season 2 of the podcast In Progress. Tune in to hear Aurora and Sophia’s intimate and sprawling conversation touching on everything from acting to activism and what it takes to stand up for yourself—even when others hope you don’t. The two talk about how Sophia got her start in acting and why activism is so integral to her life. Plus, Sophia shares what she wishes she knew about how we can all protect ourselves if we ever face harassment at work.
