The Bees are joined by Teresa Morcho, founder and CEO of Stud Model Project. Teresa discusses her work to create a diverse and inclusive network for stud models from around the world, in an industry where such representation is lacking. She also shares her journey as a Cameroonian immigrant in the US, prejudice against LQBTQ individuals in the community, and the choice to living authentically as oneself.
