Show Notes
You might know Vicci Martinez as the fierce and unforgettable “Daddy” from Orange Is the New Black (Seasons 6 & 7) or from her soul-shaking performances on The Voice and role as Frida Kahlo on HBOmax’s Clone High. But behind the spotlight is a story few have heard — and in this episode, she tells it all.
A Grit City Local, Vicci gets real about her journey from national stages to personal healing with host and friend, Krystle Edwards. Through it all, she’s kept her core intact and she’s not here to play the game by someone else’s rules.
We dive deep into what it costs to stay authentic in industries designed to shape, market, and sell your story before you’ve lived it. This isn’t just a celebrity interview for being famous.
It’s about being whole. Join us a we discuss:
