Artist and activist Angelica Martinez talks intersectional feminism, HAIR, sex and sexuality, and confidence. She shares her personal story of growing up in New Jersey in a Dominican family, leaving school and finding the college of her dreams several years later, and her own experiences with feminism in all areas of her life.

At the end of the podcast, we also talk quickly about THE POWER by Naomi Alderman, an amazing fictional book about women becoming the dominant gender across the planet, and its impact on different societies.

In #TWINTALK episodes, our format is much more conversational and less "interview" style -- we're talking about whatever is on our minds and, as always, bringing it to you unfiltered as promised.

Lizzie Muse, Kundalini instructor, sports host/announcer, and pocket-sized boss babe made of star dust and sunshine, talks about what Kundalini *is*, its benefits (with examples), and what it means to be your authentic self. Although it's an hour-long episode, at least 15 minutes of it are just us laughing...so tune in and laugh along with us!

On episode 2, you'll meet Jackie Mysliwy, who recently started her own side hustle with Rodan + Fields. We talk about building your business, overcoming fear, how much of your side hustle REALLY depends on social media (and pitfalls to avoid), and her advice for others who might be considering diving into a side hustle of their own.

BONUS EPISODE - "That's Hot." Or is it? Today I'm reviewing two common vocal tics, used almost exclusively by women, that are damaging your credibility as a speaker. The use of, and coaching around, these vocal missteps is hotly debated. Are we policing women's speech? Or are we improving our speaking techniques? Tune in, decide for yourself, and let me know which side of the fence you're on in the comments!
