This week I’m joined by Sun Roller, a true force in production and community. I first met Sunny during Indigenous New York Fashion Week and immediately knew she had a story that needed to be shared.
In this episode, we talk about the many lives Sun Roller has lived, her journey into film and television production, and her work on Reservation Dogs, Poker Face, and The Lowdown. Beyond the credits, Sunny carries a deeply human and generous spirit. Our conversation took an unexpected turn into emotion, presence, and healing, ending with a powerful two-minute solar break meditation that brings us back to breath and the present moment.
Sun Roller often says she wants to be a conduit for good work, and she lives that truth. Whether she’s on set in Oklahoma and New York or supporting women in Africa to gain access to fresh water for their families. SunRoller is truly inspirational and I can wait to see what you do next!
