Get a spiritual makeover each week as actress and activist Laverne Cox goes with her guests. We think you'll want to hear this season, but don't just take our word for it.

Nothing more than that. Each week, The Laverne Cox Show will feature intimate conversations with folks who help me to see and think differently so that maybe I can act differently. It is my hope that this becomes a place that fosters perspectives that might inspire new behavior in each of us, which in turn gets us closer to becoming the very best versions of ourselves. Let's have a spiritual makeover together.
