The Secret Life of TK Dutes

About this episode

The episode explores the journey of TK Dutes as she navigates her identity and artistic aspirations in a world that imposes limitations.

The Secret Life of TK Dutes is the story of what it means to become when the system won’t let you be. One woman sets out into the world, looking for ways to get ahead as an Artist. Producer. Daughter, Sister. Partner. Together with those who bear witness, TK throws away the scripts and looks for answers, in airports, dentists offices, across borders. Each episode is a new world, pioneering the art of loose autobiography to build the picture of a life in a community of voices. What happens when you stop doing what is expected of you and start doing YOU? A better life can be a hustle. It doesn’t have to be a secret.
