Work in Progress with Sophia Bush features frank, funny, personal, professional, and sometimes even political conversations with people who inspire Sophia about how they’ve gotten to where they are, and where they think they’re still going. These discussions stem from her "aha" moment of realizing you are allowed to be both a masterpiece and a work in progress, simultaneously.

Uzo Aduba is a force on the big screen, small screen — and the stage! Now, she is crossing off one more accomplishment from her list: author.

The Emmy award-winning actress opens up to Sophia about her new memoir, "The Road Is Good: How a Mother's Strength Became a Daughter's Purpose.” Uzo shares her coming-of-age story growing up Nigerian-American in a predominately white suburb, her journey to becoming an actor, and the profound life lessons she learned from her mother that helped shape who she is today as an actress, advocate, and a mother herself.

Plus, both women reflect on the emotional impact of attending the DNC (lots of tears were shed). Uzo also talks about another impactful moment in her life, being on the verge of quitting acting, when she landed the role of Suzanne 'Crazy Eyes' on "Orange is the New Black." She reveals how she prepared for the role, how it changed her life, and the one actress who knew it would be a hit from the start!

Rising country music artist Morgan Wade may seem like an overnight success, but it took a lot of hustle and hard work to get to where she is now.

The singer-songwriter chats with Sophia about being young and hungry to make it, and putting everything she had into kick-starting her career from booking her own shows, creating her own merch, and even building her own website! She reveals why her collaboration with Kesha felt like a full circle moment, and what it’s been like to tour with legends Alanis Morissette and Joan Jett. Plus, she shares that despite her busy schedule, she's already written her next record!

Morgan gets candid about the gauntlet of media exposure — from good to bad — and how she felt reading some of the more sensational headlines about herself. She also courageously shares about her personal road to sobriety, and opens up about her double mastectomy. Conversation topics that she hopes help others too.

Karine Jean-Pierre grew up the proud daughter of immigrants who came to this country for a better life. And she achieved the ultimate American Dream, making history as both the first Black woman and the first openly gay person to serve as the White House Press Secretary.

During an in-person sit down at the White House, Sophia catches up with Karine, who reveals what really happens outside of the Briefing Room, the secret to her success, how her tough childhood shaped her, the historical significance of the room they're chatting in, and why representation matters to all of us.
