“From the unbelievably inspirational and talented Misty Copeland to the bold young woman experiencing life abroad, … these projects embrace the new Oxygen programming which focuses on real characters who are on a journey to seek out new experiences and follow their true passions in life,” said Oxygen SVP Cori Abraham in a statement to ESSENCE.
