The Bi-Conscious Badass

Where does confidence come from? I discuss confidence and how to develop it within the self in order to build the skill of speaking out and I talk to my friend Daja (Dajonay Stewart, or Daja, @naturallydaja on IG). We discuss our experiences as marginalized women and how we find the courage to speak out about our causes and how we have helped each other do that.

In this episode, I talk to my old friend Stephanie Littlebird Fogel aka @artnerdforever on IG, go check out her wonderful art for show and sale! Support of Indigenous artists is important! We love the work and want to see it continue. We discuss our college experience, racial healing, and how art inspires us. I also talk a little about my new Patreon that is now up and the work I'm making for those supporters!

Thank you if you can support on an on-going basis, if that's not possible you can Venmo me @Veronica-Cordonnier if you are enjoying the podcast and want to support at an easy amount for you. I encourage you to give to a mutual-aid fund in your community before supporting my work or volunteering your time if you're able to do that in lieu of fiscal community support. Anything counts and I also urge you to never hesitate to reach out for community support if you are not in a position to support a local cause, artist, or podcast and require support yourself at this time. Take care and happy listening!

In this episode of The Bi-Conscious Badass I discuss consistent practice of something leading to insight and transformation. In field organizing consistency comes through pushing through the "tough" days and sticking to the basics, which can apply to a great deal of life too. My guest this episode is Teresa Guzman Pagan (@chiefofstaffpagan on IG), my old field fundraising coworker and friend who now works in GOTV (Get Out The Vote) organizing in Miami, Florida.

In this first episode, I look back on the last four years since the last presidential election. I talk to a friend about processing our feelings and what actions we have taken in the cause for the representation of people like us in government.
