Gloria Umanah is a creative entrepreneur and founder of The Hope Booth. She joins The Scatter Joy Podcast to talk through her challenging upbringing where she overcame homelessness, fatherlessness, loneliness, and depression. After nearly loosing her life to suicide at the age of 16, Gloria became passionate about fighting for those who feel invisible and founded The Hope Booth; an unconventional way of making sure that others feel seen and valued. The Hope Booth is a 3 minute interactive immersive experience that delivers artistic messages of hope in the form of remodeled phone booths, strategically placed throughout our cities, globally.
