In this episode, I had the opportunity to interview New York based artist, AJ Lavilla, at his pop up shop in the Lower East Side. AJ created The Dream is Real Pop up exhibit to encourage all dreamers to continue chasing and living their dreams despite all the challenges and difficulties they face. His artwork is all about positivity and in the podcast he talks about his journey of discovering his true passion in life and how meaningful it was for him to inspire the youth. It all began when he was evicted from his apartment in Queens, quit his 9 - 5 job, and travelled to the Philippines for a year to soul search.
