Shaping the Narrative

Would you consider yourself to be religious, spiritual, or neither? In this episode, we unpack our relationships with spirituality and religion,  discuss our individual relationships with religion growing up and how that has evolved into adulthood. We also talk about our relationship to spirituality, how whiteness has co-opted certain aspects of spirituality, and the appropriation of religion.

In this episode, we discuss Toni's powerful and poetic memoir about what it means to exist as an indigenous woman in America, told in snapshots of her encounters with gun violence.⁠ This episode is unique because it's a sneak peek into our monthly book club discussions, rather than recording our regular book review episode we decided to record our monthly book club meet-up. It's just a snapshot as our meetings are typically 1.5 hours!⁠

It's Pride month! and we want to talk about the intersections of race and Queerness. We discuss how homophobia might look different for ethnic minorities, how racialized Queers are treated vs white Queers, and discuss if racialized communities really are more homophobic than white people or not.

As two BIPOC creatives, we wanted to have conversations with other BIPOC creative women. This episode is the first of our new series called 'Conversations with Creatives'. In today's episode, we talk with Mo Bofill.  Mo is the newest Partner and Creative Director, Design at 123w – one of Canada’s leading agencies. An independent idea and design collective based out of Vancouver and Toronto. In this episode, we discuss self-doubt, mental health, what it feels like to be the only BIPOC woman in the room, and how to be seen for who you are in your creative role. Mo also chats to us about her personal projects and why she makes the time to be creative for herself outside of her job.
