a world full of slut shaming and hating hoes... where do we go from here? separating ourselves from whoreish-ness seems like a necessity a lot of the time, for our safety, dignity, and respectability to be maintained. but perhaps putting distance between ourselves and perceived whoreish-ness isn't helping anyone... not even ourselves. perhaps hoes deserve love and respect, and perhaps whoreish-ness offers something that the world deeply needs and craves. perhaps reconnecting to our sensuality, sexuality, and the strength and liberation that lies in between is not something that needs to be punished, ostracized, repressed, or marginalized. perhaps perhaps perhaps... please join me in my initial compiled thoughts regarding the nuance and harms to slut/whore shaming tied to the ongoing normalization of recreational pole dancing tied to traditional understandings of binary gendered expectations. many more thoughts to come. this episode was recorded in February 2025, and i am excited to continue discussions in the near future of how my thoughts continue to evolve since then.

why do we feel anxious as humans? and/or how do we navigate anxiety? where does it come from, and where do we go from here? how do we "get rid of," lessen, or manage anxiety? ride this wave of thought with me as I explore humans' experiences with anxiety throughout time, recent discussions surrounding mental health, the entanglement of social media and addiction, human connection, and how we can better care for one another. i hope this conversation supports us in making changes that could perhaps support reducing anxiety within ourselves... and beyond!!! :)

change starts with us; feeling our sensations and letting them guide not only our next steps as individuals, but also as a collective. let this discussion be an inspiration to reflect on how we participate in the change-making process, starting with presence and existing in our own bodies in a world that asks us to go against our own nature to uphold a status que that ultimately benefits an elite few and empowers genocide and oppression around the globe. join me in reflecting on collective dissociation, facing the truth of the limits our current infrastructure has to guide us towards health, and how changing the systems that interact with our physical health can be pursued by starting with understanding the story of our own bodies and souls.

whether or not we are consciously realizing it, relationships with our bodies tell a story. your story. an an entangled web of survival or attempting to keep up in a world moving at a not-so-ideal pace for listening to or noticing yourself in the time, space, and body you occupy. do you move to punish yourself? is the collaboration between your mind and body rooted in self-hatred, self-loathing, or wishing you were somewhere, someone you're not? if so, it's okay to be here, where you're at <333 join this conversation to spark honesty and a noticing, prioritizing learning to curate intuition and bring attention to ways in which we dissociate and/or the potential consequences of doing so.

from "I'm not like other girls" to feeling free and understanding vulnerability and openness as the beginning of the path to joining the movement for collective liberation :-) reflecting on how the environment i was surrounded with quite literally limited my worldview to the point that becoming the truth of who i was was not in the realm of my understanding what was possible for me to even imagine. well, i'm in a new environment. feeling brand new!!! re-imagining self means re-imagining the world around you!

i've got some juicy, hot goss for you today ;) but also intense and emotional thought processes to share as well. as we contemplate what it means to be a part of history and to change the focuses therewithin, we remember it is within our own power and agency to alter the narratives and center the story on ourselves. change and revolution is dire; your story matters and holds power and answers that the world needs. how would our lives change if we centered this idea? what would your next step be? {potential trigger warning for this episode- mentions and discussions surrounding sexual assault and rape}.
