Sophia Bush Instagram – Sophia Bush is listening to her intuition. And she can finally breathe. One year after a picture-perfect wedding turned public divorce, the #OneTreeHill star found herself in a new relationship. With a woman. The Internet was looking for a scandal but those close to her say she’s never been more herself. For Glamour’s April cover, Bush writes about it all: finding new love in an unexpected support system, not having regrets, her fertility journey, and more. Read her story at the link in bio.

Sophia Bush Instagram – I feel like last summer I had my very first birthday. My own. And last summer Maggie Smith’s words helped me begin to understand why. From afar, she helped me put myself back together.
She said: “How I picture it: We are all nesting dolls, carrying the earlier iterations of ourselves inside. We carry the past inside us. We take ourselves— all of our selves —wherever we go.
Inside forty-something me is the woman I was in my thirties, the woman I was in my twenties, the teenager I was, the child I was…
I still carry these versions of myself. It’s a kind of reincarnation without death: all these different lives we get to live in this one body, as ourselves.” — @maggiesmithpoet
This week I got to share my own words, that I wrote down from the bottom of my ever-evolving heart. When I uttered “I really love who I am, at this age, and in this moment” I sort of couldn’t believe it. It just fell out of me. Simple. But profound. I’ve always wanted to feel that in my bones. Suddenly I do. It took a long time and a lot of work to get here.
To any of who on your own journey, and to the countless number of you who’ve shared your hearts, kindness, hidden truths, and stunning responses to my essay … I see you. I do. We are all in this together. Walking each other home. Here is to the becoming ✨
Sophia Bush Instagram – “I am who I am, no excuses.” And who I am is a woman that shows up to a four hour board meeting in Detroit, fresh off the plane, with a Jersey Mike’s #7 (no cheese) in hand. And a Mary Poppins bag with my 59 page brief filled with graphs, two chocolate bars, a bag of pretzels, a bag of popcorn, Listerine strips, and not one but two packets of crunchy chickpeas because the potential of being stranded in an airport delay with no snacks panics a camp counselor.
Crushed the meeting. Big things coming with @nialauryn @unionheritage in our favorite midwestern city.
And no, this isn’t a @jerseymikes ad for the folks who will think it is. But guys? I’ve loved you for almost 20 years and here we are.
Sophia Bush Instagram – ever-evolving still weird.
thank you for the kindness, vulnerability, and the stories and journeys of your own so many of you have shared.
courage is contagious. here’s to a life in progress ✨
Sophia Bush Instagram – Loved being part of the @latimes Book Festival, to talk about the profound effect of #MaryOliver’s writing and #WildAndPrecious, our #AudieAward winning audio book about her work and life. Mary’s life inspired wonder, exploration, a divine relationship with the natural world, and (to me) courage. The sometimes trembling courage to treat your one wild and precious life as something your soul emphatically says yes to. And if not? To change it. I loved that last question, and I loved this whole conversation with @kerrikolen and @alyssabereznak. If you haven’t listened to the book yet, visit my #linkinbio or @pushkinpods @maryoliverofficial 🌾📚✨

Sophia Bush Instagram – We had an amazing time at the first #MSNBClive yesterday, speaking to @stephruhle about closing the gender lending gap and our work as advisors to the @firstwomensbank and general partners at @unionheritage.
We understand the unique needs of the women’s economy because we are a part of it. Women are leading an economic revolution in this country, but just as there are gender gaps in leadership and pay, there is a gender gap in access to capital and First Women’s Bank intends to solve it.
And as investors, we know that on the equity side the need is just as urgent. We spend a lot of time educating people about the disparities for women and people of color — and they are many — but the truth is, more capital is needed in the ecosystem earlier for everyone. The lack of access to it disproportionately affects underrepresented founders. It is also where we see the greatest investment opportunity. We know that when we fund: early stage — matters just as much as who we fund: diverse entrepreneurs — and who gets to do the funding: diverse allocators.
Teams of diverse founders (meaning more than one gender and/or more than one race or ethnicity represented) create more innovation and, on average, better financial outcomes at venture-funded startups, including 30% higher MOIC (multiples on invested capital) when companies are acquired or go public, plus better valuations for startups with at least one female founder (63% better than all-male teams) and/or with at least one ethnically-diverse team member reporting to the CEO (65% better than all-white teams).
Our diversity of experience truly is our greatest strength. It’s moral. And it’s basic math. And we’re betting on both. Thank you to @lukerussert and @rashidaaj. And to @lisalstone for your incredible research quoted above.

Sophia Bush Instagram – We’ve been chasing dreams and building chosen family for so long, that we’ve come full circle into a family business. I’m so proud and honored to be a part of it. #repost @nialauryn
・・・
This time of year has made me reflect on the idea of family. The ones we are born into, the ones we choose, the ones we feel called to build alongside.
Very proud of WM12 — our annual Family Issue. For the opportunity to share a bit of our story @unionheritage
And the stories of our friends who have become family.
We need each other now more than ever. 🫶🏾

Sophia Bush Instagram – Actress and activist @sophiabush speaks backstage with @jenpsaki at MSNBC Live’s inaugural event in Washington, D.C. about what’s at stake in the upcoming election. “I’m hoping that we can pull our heads out of the sand, show up, beat it back at the ballot box and exercise our power,” she says.
MSNBC Live features live interviews and panel discussions, as well as forums and other events with MSNBC anchors and talent. @lukerussert is the host and creative director of MSNBC Live.
Sophia Bush Instagram – I am just over the moon that #WildAndPrecious is the Audie Award winner for Short Stories & Collections! Being asked to narrate this beautiful book about my favorite poet, Mary Oliver, was such a joy. And the fact that you have all loved it so much just makes my heart swell. #Audies2024 #MaryOliver @pushkin_press
