That strange silence. That disappearance.
And I want to talk about what’s really happening, why so many brilliant voices aren’t being seen, and why it’s not a personal failure.

The adult industry is one of the most judged and least understood creative spaces.
This week I talk with Evie Rees - award winning - porn actor and OnlyFans creator, about what really happens behind the camera - the community, testing, the financial ups and downs, and whether it’s all worth it.
We unpack the balance between empowerment and exhaustion, visibility and censorship, and the emotional realities of a job that’s constantly misunderstood.

Where does religion end and spirituality begin? Does organised faith have room for ecstatic personal experience? In this episode I trace my path from an Orthodox childhood to an unplanned encounter with Kali Ma that shifted everything.

I confess I once judged meditation, crystals and talk of energy, and I share how that judgement slowly gave way to curiosity, humility and practice. We unpack the tension between ritual and mysticism and consider how a single experience can rewrite long held stories about the divine. If you have ever felt torn between faith and curiosity, this episode is for you.

Join me and my friend as we unpack what gender feels like in everyday life. We talk about sex and gender, what being non binary can look like, and how to show up better for trans and gender nonconforming people.
Expect personal stories, small practical tips, and plenty of moments that might make you rethink what you thought you knew.

Definitions:
AFAB - Assigned female at birth. A medical label given when someone is born based on anatomy. AMAB - Assigned male at birth. A medical label given at birth based on anatomy.
Sex versus gender:
Sex refers to biological attributes such as chromosomes, hormones, and anatomy. Gender refers to social roles, identity, and how someone experiences themselves as masculine, feminine, both, neither, or something else entirely. People often mix these up, but they are not the same thing.
Non binary - An umbrella term for people whose gender is not only male or female. Someone who is non binary might use they them pronouns or other pronouns, and may express their gender in many different ways.
Cis - Short for cisgender. A cis person’s gender identity matches the sex they were assigned at birth. Being cis is a common experience but not the only one.
Gender nonconforming - When a person’s expression or presentation does not follow cultural expectations for masculinity or femininity. 
Trans - Short for transgender. A trans person has a gender identity that is different from the sex they were assigned at birth. Trans experiences are varied and can include social transition, medical transition, or none of those things.

If you are engaged and something feels off, this episode is for you. I tell the story of calling off my wedding in real time and unpack the noisy pressures that push people toward saying yes. We talk about the subtle signs that your reasons for marrying are not your own, practical steps to slow down, and honest questions to ask your partner and yourself. This is not about shame. This is about giving yourself permission to choose with clarity and courage.

Quitting a stable career and stepping into the unknown. This is the story of how I walked away from what was expected of me, from a life that wasn’t my vision but the path most of us accept as the only option. Self-employment is scary, but it can also be the option you’ve been too afraid to consider.
