Food has become so commercialized that many people feel guilty about eating some food. This is quite a miserable way to live, and June Jo Lee offers a solution: adopting the so-called ethnographic diet. In this conversation with Corinna Bellizzi, she explores her groundbreaking ethnographic research about the benefits of eating the food you love, not the food forced upon you by society. June discusses how to teach the younger generation to eat better and give more importance to eating healthily. She also explains how to cook more without following a rigid recipe but instead relying on the natural flavor at your fingertips.

Exploring the rich meaning behind what we choose to eat, food ethnographer June Jo Lee unpacks how our "modern hungers" — or our deepest desires and need for connection — inform every bite. She decodes what Gen Z's palate says about the present moment and the shape of the future.

In this conversation, Phil and Jo Lee explore the concept of creative confidence, its roots in drama education, and the importance of arts in fostering self-worth and community. Jo shares her journey from being a drama teacher to advocating for the arts, discussing the transformative power of drama in education and the challenges faced in integrating arts into school curriculums. They delve into the significance of experiential learning, the fight for recognition of the arts, and the personal struggles with confidence and imposter syndrome. The discussion emphasizes the need for community support and the journey of self-discovery in building confidence and articulating one's skills. Creative confidence is essential for personal and professional growth. Drama serves as a powerful tool for building confidence. The arts are often undervalued in education despite their benefits. Experiential learning enhances engagement and skill acquisition. Transformative moments in drama can lead to significant personal development. The fight for drama in schools continues amidst standardized testing pressures. Confidence is not synonymous with extroversion; quiet confidence is equally valid. Community support plays a crucial role in enhancing self-worth. Building in success can help individuals recognize their strengths. Self-reflection is key to overcoming imposter syndrome and finding one's voice.

The boys have been spending the last 120 hours in captivity with each other, and surprisingly no one has been murdered... yet. This week the boys recap the wobbling dixie details of Cory's trip to NYC. But first: it's always something, and in this case, Cory's flight to NY certainly didn't happen without incident. THEN: from Outback to outhouse, Kisos and Cory talk about meeting up with some fellow musicians (the likes of Michael Love Michael, Peter Ngqibs, Jo Lee, Bryce Quartz and Homobyte!), playing minigolf (spoiler alert: Cory did better this time), Phantom of the Opera AND the infamous (lower) Lips restaurant! It's a shorter episode than normal, because the boys are exhausted - but get your penis pumps out anyway, just incase the mood strikes.

Jo is a first-time mama to her 4 month old son. She suffered from post-natal depression after having an emergency c-section and having feelings of disconnect from her son. Her depression worsened and she was taken to hospital and admitted into a unit for mums and their bubs.  Jo talks about how much of those few months felt like an out-of-body experience and how she felt emotions she'd never felt before. She talks about how her faith in God was shaken and how difficult it was to see His goodness in the fog. And how it took her church community who rallied around her and her husband to show her God's kindness.  This is an episode for everyone- not just mums! If you know of someone who is a new mum, reach out to her, cook her a meal, stand with her in prayer. It really does take a village to raise a child, but it takes a village to support the parents, too!  And if you have experienced a postpartum mental illness, you are seen and you are loved. Take it from someone who's been there in the trenches too.

Michael Roberson discusses the ballroom community -- which drew mainstream notice courtesy of Madonna's 1990 "Vogue" video and Jennie Livingston's 1991 documentary Paris Is Burning -- and its ability to unify traditionally excluded individuals. These self-made families forge bonds that span a lifetime and has developed into a global subculture. He believes that the family dynamics created within ballroom culture can teach the rest of us how to develop healthy communities. Michael Roberson is an adjunct professor at the New School and Union Theological Seminary and a senior scholar for the Center for Race, Religion and Economic Democracy. He's a member of the sound art collective ULTRA-red and a creative consultant for the FX series Pose.

You, dear listener, might have wavy, curly, coily, or kinky hair. TODAY, we're talking about the obsession with our hair. Not our own obsession with our hair, #TeamNatural. Rather, the obsession non-POC seem to have with touching our hair. You probably had a variation of this conversation at least once in your life: “I just love your hair! It’s so beautiful. Can I touch it?” A lot of the time, you’re lucky if they ask. Why is it, for many POC, our hair becomes a reason to establish personal boundaries with others? Beyond hair, we talk about expectations to conform to a particular professional (Read: White) image. Natural hairstyles like locs or afros are banned in the workplaces. Women might be "expected" to wear heels. You might dress in a manner that's "too flamboyant". How do you unpack that in order to live more authentically? Ashley Nesby is back for an encore performance. She joins the Fab Four in to create the Thriving Five. We jump into self-care as Jo Lee bites the bullet, Johnathan feels like a baby, Zach is SO humble, Carlos uses the force, and Ashley tells the family business.

She also shares her coming out experience and being the first lesbian couple to attend her high school's prom. Now, she serves as a Sr. Product Marketing Manager at Buzzfeed and recently married!

Leaning in (and leaning over) to 2020, you might be examining your relationships and grappling with people who are toxic in your life. The blurring edges between social media and real life don't make that a walk in the park. As the conversation about "cancel culture" heats up, is it okay to cut those people from your life? The Core Four dive pretty deep talking about their own experiences in dealing with toxic people. Sometimes, that's looked like letting go of people associated with toxic memories. Family members, partners, friends-with-benefits, and acquaintances can all be toxic influences in your life. They're not easy to deal with in an ongoing basis. Letting go of those people can be just as difficult. What if you are the person who needs to be dealt with? Relationships are hard. But the relationship you have with yourself is worth asking these questions. GROW THE COMMUNITY If you believe in the work we are doing, invest in our success, become a Patron on Patreon!

We’re This QPOC Life and this is... 2020! The core four are back with a self-care check-in and setting our intentions for a new decade.

The Core Four are joined by the illustrious Raffy Regulus. It's Carlos's first time rolling the d20s. For vets like Johnathan, Zach, and Jo, it's still an adventure we didn't expect. Raffy takes us on a Dungeons and Dragons adventure as only a QPOC could. What twists and turns await our aspiring adventurers? What lurks in the forgotten places of Waterdeep? With special editing and sound design by Jo, get ready for a ride. Dungeons and Dragons is given a special place in the hearts of many queer and trans people of color. For some, it's a safe way to try on new identities. It's a playful way to explore who we are. If you never played the game before, we hope you enjoy our quest. If you're an old hat at D&D, maybe you'll be inspired for your next game. From all of us at This QPOC Life, we wish you a Happy Holiday and can't wait to be back with you in 2020! --- ARTICLES: For D&D newbies: https://thisqpoc.life/0g4x How Dungeons and Dragons Became So Wonderfully Gay: https://thisqpoc.life/wk73 OUR GUEST: Raffy Regulus: https://twitter.com/raffy_regulus --- GROW THE COMMUNITY If you believe in the work we are doing, invest in our success, become a Patron on Patreon!

On this episode we talk about the Big C and talk with two fierce warriors who are fighting an awesome fight against it, Gay-Louise Aitken and Jo Lee. Fighting Breast Cancer and Lymphoma respectively, these two brave and wonderful women tell us of their journey's, their experience of chemotherapy, of Maggies, coping techniques, and coming out the other side. If you're looking for inspiration on reasons not to sweat the small stuff, embrace life and the importance of sisterhood, then you'll want to tune in to this very powerful episode. Huge thanks to Jo & Gay for sharing so openly.https://www.maggiescentres.org/If you have any questions or feedback please email us at info@weareegg.co.uk, and we’d love you to follow us on Instagram: @eggcommunityWebsite: https://eggedinburgh.com/https://eggglasgow.com/

Acclimatizing to workplace culture can already be a tricky thing to navigate. That's especially true in corporate culture. The whole crew attended an LGBTQIA+ event that Zach put together. The panel brought folks together sharing different experiences as far as their ability to self express at work. This had us thinking about what it's like being QTPOC at corporate gigs. "Tone it down." "Everything doesn't have to be about sexuality." Binarist dress codes. These are just a few of the ways that we can be limited in the workplace. Where do these rules and microaggressions come from? What's possible when we can stop worrying about whether that nail polish is appropriate for work? What can happen when we can truly WERQ the workplace? GROW THE COMMUNITY If you believe in the work we are doing, invest in our success, become a Patron on Patreon! Thank you to all our Patrons.
