The Uncanny Lens

What happens when the “good mother” narrative dies? In this episode of The Uncanny Lens, Minx is back and we sink our teeth into the themes of loss, transformation, and self-concept shifts through the lens of the 2024 movie Nightbitch. We explore how motherhood can feel like a death—of identity, autonomy, and self—while also opening a portal for rebirth, reclamation, and manifestation.

We break down self-concept shifts after major identity shifts (from motherhood, illness, disability,  or any life-altering experience). Plus, we dive into archetypes, the myth of the selfless mother, and how embracing your inner Nighbitch can be the key to unlocking your highest self.

If you’ve ever felt lost in your own life, stuck in a role that no longer fits, or unsure how to reclaim your wildness—this one’s for you.

In this episode, I sit down with Roxy from Roxy Talks. From self-concept to artistic identity, we explore the struggles and breakthroughs that shape the creative journey. We discuss the challenges of building an artistic identity and overcoming creative blocks while staying true to our purpose. We navigate the depths of chronic negativity and anger, how an identity crisis leads to new beginnings, and the alchemy of personal loss into creative expression.

We explore manifestation, breaking generational cycles, and the power of different voices and perspectives. Roxy and I talk about shifting careers, embracing authenticity, and pushing boundaries for expansion. We also, reflect on the creation of Roxy's new song and music video The Mountain, the role of art in political and personal transformation, and the unique responsibility of holding the light in activism.

The discussion unfolds into embracing freedom in art and business, finding authenticity, and discovering a deeper purpose in entrepreneurship. This conversation is for artists, entrepreneurs, and creatives looking to align their work with their true purpose. As we close, I guide you through an embodiment exercise, inviting you to integrate these insights into your own creative and personal evolution.

Join us for this layered exploration of art, identity, and the power of stepping fully into your purpose.
