In this episode...
We chat about self care and what that means for us. We include a brief overview of the origins of self care and how it has been used against marginalized people in the past and present. The social impacts of capitalism co-opting self care has made it harder to access meaningful connections within ourselves and others. Join us in our discussion of the ways we are trying to take self care back again and fight the system that we find ourselves in.

Who is the Menagerie?
We are an LGBTQIA+ couple exploring our journey through life, and how our identities impact our experiences. For viewers, our appearances transform through various mediums (such as body paint, makeup, costuming, and more). We transform into different animals and fantastical creatures, hence we are a menagerie! Join us in showing and exploring our diverse identities! 🏳️⚧️ 🏳️🌈 ✨
🦄 Argentarius (they/them) is a half-Chinese American transformation artist using bodypaint and makeup to transform into various animals and fantasy creatures who has immigrated to Ireland.
🐯 Saoirse (they/them) is currently training to become a therapist, and enjoys learning new crafts.
Both of us are late diagnosed Autistic & ADHD 🧠, non-binary trans* 🏳️⚧️, immigrants ✈️, bisexual on asexual spectrum 🌈, with chronic disabilities (some invisible) 🦻
🐈⬛ The Void, our black cat, often joins us and gives her own feline insight!
