About this listen

In this episode of Adventures of a Wallflower, J.D. Morgan and filmmaker Sasha Gay‑Lewis explore how everyday Jamaican stories — especially the School’s Challenge quiz culture — shaped her voice, healed her inner child, and revealed the complicated mix of belonging, pressure, and hope that fuels young competitors.

They discuss representation, community, mentorship, and Sasha’s mission to bring these stories to a global audience, including her fundraiser and ways to support her work. The conversation celebrates resilience, creativity, and the power of storytelling to transform lives.
