Creativity is not just something we do — it’s something we follow. In this episode of The Well Woman Show, host Giovanna Rossi sits down with writer and filmmaker Giovanna Capone for a reflective conversation about creativity as a guiding force, cultural memory, and the courage to be seen. Giovanna Capone shares her journey from public librarian to documentary filmmaker, and how her film Finding the Italians: A Granddaughter’s Journey grew out of a longing for cultural connection after moving from New York to California. What began as academic research became a deeply personal story about ancestry, belonging, and voice.
