  • Ableism: The Silent Epidemic with Claudia Favela
    Have you consumed inspiration porn? You probably have. Today we unpack how society portrays the disabled community and the silent epidemic that is casual ableism. I brought on my good friend Claudia Favela (@claudiafavelaa) to talk about everything from our first year of college, our admiration for women in power like AOC, and of course got educated on disability and how we can be better allies! I learnt so much from Claudia this week and I am positive you will to. There is so many issues that fly under the radar such as the violent numbers of sexual assault to those who are disabled, inspiration porn, etc. So whats the first step? getting educated and having an open dialogue. It's time we break stigmas baby! Hope you love this episode as much as I did.

  • BLACK LIVES MATTER: Are You Actually an Ally? with Edriana Cofer

    This week we had an important discussion about the Black lives matter movement with Edriana Cofer. Covering everything from performative allyship, the stigmas of being a black women, white feminism, and many more valuable topics. This is possibly my favorite episode ever as I was able to learn so much and have a great conversation. Never stop educating yourself, others, and continue to ask learn and do more when it comes to fighting systemic racism and your solidarity in the Black lives matter movement. GO FOLLOW EDRIANA on instagram at @eddykainee!! She does instagram podcast videos discussing these and many more topics such as intersectionality, colorism, and more. I am so grateful to have come across her on instagram and be able to do this episode together.

    Hope you are all staying safe and doing well, sending love and remember to keep the momentum going.
