The bird's the word on this episode with author and blogger Grace Bonney. Grace's love of watching birds is queer and contagious. So what's the big deal about birding anyway? How can it positively affect your mental health? What's the community like? Why does it feel so queer? Which birds seem most sapphic? Are all pigeons elder queers? We answer all these questions and nerd out about so much more. Plus, we also talk about Grace's latest book, Collective Wisdom, and what they learned in the process of writing it. Also, find out if the omicron variant hindered Carolyn and Melody's gayness this week. Finally, we strap in for a listener question about strap-on etiquette.

Episode 152: Maya-Camille BroussardMaya-Camille is the creative force behind Justice of the Pies, her Chicago bakery that's become known for inventive and unmatched flavors (Lemon Espresso Pie … Blue Cheese Praline Pear Pie … and so on).Much of Maya-Camille's work traces back to her roots, with a significant influence from her father, the self-dubbed “Pie Master,” who worked as a criminal defense attorney by day. As with many family stories, Maya-Camille's is complex and dotted with both adoration and strife. A strong sense of social activism and community building runs through her blood, though, and is baked into her work.Her first cookbook, also titled Justice of the Pies, brings these beloved and revered recipes to home bakers with 85 recipes for both sweet and savory pies—plus quiches, tarts, whoopie pies, and more.“I've always loved baking,” Maya-Camille says in our chat. “But at my core, I am a creative individual. And also at my core, I love working with my hands. I do have an arts background in terms of dancing, in terms of theater, in terms of visual art. I even played upright bass for five years. But culinary is still an art form—and it's the only art form that we have that's required for us to live. I don't dance as much anymore, but I'm still living, you know? I don't paint anymore, but I'm still living. If I don't eat, I'm not gonna live. So I can take this creative energy that I have and pour it into something that also provides me sustenance.”Justice of the Pies is also filled with stories of “stewards" who Maya-Camille says are “agents of change who stand for fairness and equality.” Maya-Camille penned short profiles and developed recipes to honor folks like Black Joy Project creator Kleaver Cruz; cookbook author and Equity at the Table founder Julia Turshen and Design*Sponge founder Grace Bonney; and disability rights activist Claudia Gordon. (Or take Big Kika Keith and Kika Jr., who opened LA's first Black-owned, women-led dispensary. To accompany their story, Maya-Camille developed a “Peaches and Herb Cobbler” that features a weed-infused butter.)P.S. Maya-Camille starred in Netflix's “Bake Squad” hosted by Christina Tosi, and she returns to the cast for a second season with it drops later this month.Featured Recipes from Justice of the PiesThis week, paid subscribers can access two featured recipes from Maya-Camille's Justice of the Pies: Lavender Whoopie Pies and Chocolate-Peanut Butter + Pretzel Tart.Salt + Spine is supported by listeners like you.

As much as birds bother me, there's something enviable about them. They can just take off when they're tired of us, and pull up to the wide view of everything. Maybe that's why folks are so interested in watching them. I put my annoyance with birds aside and ask my guest Grace Bonney what's so wonderful about following these little creatures of land and air.   Indulgence Nichole recommends a cooking class!   Guest Grace Bonney founded the blog Design*Sponge, the print magazine, Good Company and hosted two podcasts, After the Jump and Good Company Radio. Grace has written three best-selling books, Design*Sponge at Home, In the Company of Women, and Collective Wisdom. Grace lives in the Hudson Valley with wife, Julia, and their three pets. Grace is currently studying to be a Marriage and Family Therapist at Syracuse University.   Find Us Online - Twitter: @ThisIsGoodPod - Instagram: @ThisIsGoodPod - Merch: thisisgoodpod.com/merch - Patreon: thisisgoodpod.com/patreon - Nichole: @tnwhiskeywoman - Multitude: @MultitudeShows - Email: thisisgoodpod@gmail.com   Production - Producer: Eric Silver - Editor: Mischa Stanton - Executive Producers: Amanda McLoughlin and Nichole Perkins - Theme Music: Donwill - Artwork: Jessica E.

Every episode, Nichole explores something that people love—whether it's needlepoint, watching bad movies with friends, or cowgirl exercise classes—and asks experts and devotees why it makes them happy. She ends each show with an Indulgence: a recommendation that listeners can enjoy with no remorse. There's no such thing as a guilty pleasure when you learn to love it freely!

In this interview I interviewed drama therapist and creative, Lisa Drupstein. We had such a fun conversation and discussed what a drama therapist does, how growth comes from discomfort and also how for her, creativity is her language of communication. We had some fascinating insights into the concept of 'follow your foot' - a term that relates to stepping forwards on a stage to improvise. Plus, the highlight of the show... a song about creativity sung by Lisa on her ukulele. Seriously, do stay tuned to hear this as it's brilliant! About Lisa Lisa comes to us from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. She's a Drama Therapist by training and has worked in various settings including hospitals, schools, and private practice. Her most notable projects have included launching an Improv for Anxiety program, teaching Improv and Puppetry classes for adults, and running social skills programs in daycares using puppetry and music. Her creative passions include improv, musical comedy, video production, and photography. Recently, Lisa has launched Local Well, an online initiative that celebrates and encourages creativity and wellness. You can find Lisa online here: www.localwell.ca IG: @local_well_canada Show Notes The book Lisa referred to in the podcast was In the Company of Women by Grace Bonney. My favourite quote from Lisa in this episode was "Creativity is my language for communication."

Design*Sponge founder Grace Bonney grew up knowing she wasn’t straight but not knowing what to do with that. Her love of Riot Grrrl music and angry collages informed her creative identity and after studying art and journalism in college, it all melted together in the creation of Design*Sponge. After 15 years and a lot of success, she’s just announced that she plans to shutter this year and she’s sending it out in a blaze of experimentation and celebration.

When we think about thoughtful online storytelling, no one does it quite like Grace Bonney of Design*Sponge. As a true leader in the digital space, Grace's 15-year journey has left an indelible imprint on how we self-publish and build viable businesses in the digital age. Outside of Design*Sponge's namesake website, Grace has built a creative empire that spans beyond the confines of the web to include two books, a magazine, and a podcast. But over time, Grace has seen the landscape evolve, and she's grappled with how to maintain that balance of conscious publishing in a time that demands fast (and fleeting) content. When Grace announced that 2019 would be Design*Sponge's final year, her honesty resonated with us. In this episode, she addressed the realities that come with championing slow content in specific industries, and the importance of using content and online tools to build honest and lasting connections. This episode also opens with a story contributed by Ellie Eckert of City Brewed and Written Coffee.

Design Sponge is one of those sites I look to - not only for inspiration in my daily life, but also as a blogger. Grace Bonney, the founder, always seems to get it right. She seems to possess an effortless access to parts of her brain that I have spent several decades searching for. (I'm still looking.) And yet, she remains completely approachable. Grace and I talk quite a bit about dieting - we discuss her eating disorder growing up, and food as medicine with Type 1 Diabetes. She is married to the food writer and private chef Julia Turshen, so of course I am picking her brain about that. Theme music is by Podcast Guest Goh Nakamura.

Grace Bonney is the founder and editor-in-chief of Design*Sponge and the author of the new book In the Company of Women.  In this episode, we talk about Grace's new book - what she learned from interviewing over 100 female creative entrepreneurs, what was the most surprising, and what her goals were for undertaking such a project (with a super quick turnaround!). We also talk about the evolution of Design*Sponge and how she's stayed true to her own voice throughout the years (even when it was risky to do so!). Bonus topics include: how she got over her fear of rejection, how she stays centered, and the value of different kinds of supportive communities. Such good stuff!!
