Welcome to OUT LOUD LIVE! A live podcast recording of a queer storytelling event hosted by City of Sydney Councillor Adam Worling in collaboration with Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras. The concept is simple: queer activists, creatives, taste- and troublemakers from across the LGBTIQA+ communities are invited to share their stories. This podcast was recorded live at the 2025 iteration of OUT LOUD, where speakers were asked to respond to the theme: FREE TO BE.

In this episode we hear from Paisley Heart (they/them). Visionary events producer, DJ, and facilitator–Paisley Heart seamlessly weaves the worlds of sex parties, rave culture, and therapeutic tools, crafting immersive experiences where hedonism, healing, and creative expression meet.
