In this episode,  Brandi is joined by Erna Kim Hackett (@liberatedtogether) to explore the concept of virginity, its cultural implications, its theological roots and how it separates us from ourselves, others, and inhibits our relationship with God...maybe just not how we thought it would. Erna Kim Hackett is the founder and leader of Liberated Together where she creates community for Women of Color, Queer WOC, and non-binary folks who have been shaped by Christianity to explore liberated and embodied theology, decolonized approaches to social justice, and radical solidarities across ethnic lines.

Let's get real about therapy! Dr. Money joins us to discuss "Ep 27 When Therapy is Not Enough." We get into Black Femininst Narrative Therapy, what it is, and how Dr. Money uses it in her practice. We discuss systemic suffering masquerading as mental illness, the ethics of involuntary hospitalization, and how everyone thinks they're sicker than they actually are. Dr. Money also answers your listener questions!Dr. Montinique "Money" McEachern (her/she) is a Black lesbian healer with her own practice, Combahee Therapy, based in what is now called Philadelphia, but is the original home of the Lenape people. She is the oldest child of her momma, and grew up surrounded with the stories of Black women, so it is no surprise that her therapeutic approach merges Black feminism and Narrative Therapy. She is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and has a PhD in MFT as well. When she's not therapizing, she is hosting QueerWOC: The Podcast, a podcast for the social and mental wellbeing of sapphics of color.RESOURCES "EP 27 When Therapy Is Not Enough" "The Combahee River Collective Statement" PDF Post Traumatic Slave Syndrome.

We have a *hilarious* conversation with actor Erica Luttrell (Lost Girl; Salvation; Mayans M.C.), who voices lesbian icon Sapphire on Steven Universe! Back when she was younger, Erica made a point of differentiating between her platonic female crushes (Gillian Anderson) and her non-platonic male crushes (you will genuinely never guess who). But the formative experience of seeing Shakespeare in Love brought up some feelings she could no longer ignore, and kicked off a five-ish year internal struggle with her sexuality. Erica reads some GLORIOUS journal entries from that time in her life, and discusses how she eventually grew to identify as "homoromantic demi-pansexual" (but also just "gay"). Plus, she shares how she *still* gets cast almost exclusively in make-out-with-a-dude roles, even after publicly coming out! WHAT'S IT GONNA TAKE, HOLLYWOOD?!?Follow Erica everywhere at @shukrani.

Money is back this week talking a tea to help calm your nerves, which was much needed after hearing that WNBA star (and lesbian heartthrob) and 2x Olympic Gold Medalist Brittney Griner has been detained in Russia for over 3 weeks. I talk my understandings of what's going on, what scares me about the timing of her detainment, and hopes for her safe return home (timestamp in the description for this discussion). Gloria Anzaldua is QueerWOC of the week this week and her words were a much needed and timely reminder of what we face as QWOC. #FreeBG #FreeBrittney #FreeBrittneyGriner Where to find us: IG & Twitter - @queerwocpod FB - https://www.facebook.com/QueerWOCpod/ Tumblr - www.QueerWOC.com Listen to us on Spotify, Soundcloud, Stitcher, Castbox, PocketCasts Contribute to QueerWOC via CashApp: $QueerWOCPod Become a Patron: https://www.patreon.com/queerwocpod Rate, Review, Request, Repost, Retweet, and Reply!

In a mere twenty-two years on this planet, Regan Aliyah (Club Mickey Mouse) has already forged a career as an actor, rapper, spoken word artist, choreographer, and more! Regan started working professionally at the age of twelve; as a result, she never really focused on herself or her personal life because she felt she had to prioritize her outward-facing persona. She teaches us all about The Lesbian Masterdoc (TM), reveals her cartoon crushes, and tells the *adorable* story of how she met her MMA fighter girlfriend! Also, how she and her mom got to the beautiful place in their relationship that they're at now, despite getting off on the wrong foot when Regan first came out.Check out all things Regan at reganaliyah.com, and follow her everywhere at @reganaliyah!

A trauma bond - also known as a bond of trauma, abusive bonding,, traumatic love, traumatic bonding, or Stockholm syndrome is a dynamic that occurs in the context of abusive relationships. It happens when the person inflicting exploitation, violence, or another type of trauma becomes an essential part of the persons life who is experiencing this trauma. So what are people trying to get at by misusing the term? How to share without "dumping" on someone: ACTION Ask consent - I would like to share something hard with you, do you have the capacity to hear it? Check in as you share - I know this is hard to hear, are you okay? Tell them what you need or how you are healing- Inquire about them - so I just shared a lot but I would love to hear about you Open up about other things- I also love pottery Notice how you feel sharing - were you ready to share? https://www.betterhelp.com/advice/trauma/what-abusers-hope-we-never-learn-about-traumatic-bonding/ Topic 00:35:44 Things I'm thankful happened this year Curved Chronicles 00:47:38 Queer femmes jus different!

Our DMs have been overflowing with a veritable cornucopia of polyamory-related questions, so seeing as tomorrow is Thanksgiving, we thought we'd bring not one, not two, but THREE poly folks to the table to discuss loving in abundance! Morgan (@chillpolyamory) provides peer support for poly folks, and nesting partners Bear & Fifi (@bear.n.fifi) offer intimacy coaching. They were all kind enough to cover topics such as "relationship anarchy," jealousy, "compersion," agreements, scarcity vs. abundance, and what the folks are up to kink-wise in Berlin! Nicole and our guests respond to listener questions, and give tips for first-timers easing into poly. Also, Lauren finally gets all of her monogamous-person questions answered!

It's deeply embarrassing for a queer podcast to go 3+ years without featuring the founder of an animal rescue, but that all ends TODAY! Natalie Garcia lost her dog Maggie Mae in an unthinkable accident, but the tragedy inspired her to create MaeDay Rescue. Eleven years later, MaeDay is one of the most popular rescues in Los Angeles - in fact, it's where Nicole got Dobby! Eventually we manage to pull ourselves away from talking about dogs long enough to dig into Natalie's coming out story, which begins at the tender age of fourteen. Natalie discusses being part of her high school's "popular straight girls group," and how coming out set her off on a different path from those friends. She also shares the VERY dramatic story of reconnecting with her high school girlfriend years later, and the time she and her date found out they were actually related. All this, plus auditory cameos from *several* pets!Follow Natalie on Instagram at @nataliewould, and follow MaeDay Rescue everywhere at @maedayrescue.

Social activist Suad Abdul Khabeer said on Twitter, “You don't have to be the voice for the voiceless, just pass the mic.” So today, I want to pass the mic to some queer, BIPOC voices that have made an incredible impact on my understanding of this concept. I wanted to start with Intersectionality matters - is a podcast hosted by Kimberlé Crenshaw, an American civil rights advocate and a leading scholar of critical race theory. Next I wanted to highlight, Sessions with my therapists - podcast about two dope Black women who found healing and happiness through therapy. Angela is queer and they're both so open and comfortable it's like listening in on a friend's conversation. The podcast Nancy is also really dope - Queer, Asian Americans Kathy Tu and Tobin Low share really great, personal stories and have some really cool guests on there. The Queer Arabs podcast is a growing collection of dialogues surrounding the intersection of Middle Eastern/Southwest Asian + North African and LGBTQ identities. Recording in English and Arabic, with hosts based in the US and guests based all over, the podcast highlights queer artists, activists, and others who speak on behalf of racial justice, gender liberation, and sex positivity. Food 4 Thot A roundtable discussion podcast wherein a multiracial mix of queer writers talk sex, relationships, race, identity, what they like to read, and who they like to read. The red nation podcast The Red Nation Podcast features discussions on Indigenous history, politics, and culture from a left perspective. QueerWOC is a space for queer women and folks of color rooted in reimagining healing, organizing, and community.

She gives an update about a campaign in upstate NY to provide justice for a Black trans woman, Chanel Hines who’s one of the QueerWOC’s of the week. The other queerwoc of the week is none other than Juju (@itsjujubae) from A Little Juju podcast. Money has a FANTASTIC interview/conversation with Juju that you absolutely do not want to miss! Nikeeta rounds out the show taking a turn at the Tumblr cake questions. It’s no surprise that her answers and Money’s answers are wildly different. Intro by TRUTH of Mother Nature.

We said it once and we’ll say it again, and again, and again. BLACK LIVES MATTER! This week we continue with last week’s discussion about how Latinos need to do better in the fight for black liberation. We discuss what is race and how it is not the same as ethnicity, the difference between how Mexico & USA look at racism, and how we are calling out racism in our community. J & Lesly also continue their conversation with Laisa & Jackie about their Latinx experience with racism and conversations they're having with family and friends. We hope this episode is enabling those white passing latinos to do some internal work and really go full out for support of black lives. This isn’t an easy conversation for anyone and we understand. But enough is enough. We need to do better and be better. Remember, colonization didn’t happen overnight and neither will dismantling its structures. But together, we can do anything. It all starts with a conversation.

Isake and Kirya giggle a lot with our guest, storyteller, and musician Be Steadwell. We talk about her new album, Succulent, what is getting us through in the midst of a wild world, and what we are imagining things could be.

BLACK LIVES MATTER. PERIOD. GTFO if you disagree. In this political climate people have asking Black Americans how to end racism and it's time we take accountability for our own actions and advance the cause. As Latinx people we have run into our fair share of racism and anti-blackness in our community and we are here to call you out. If you are doing the work on the ground, great! But this episode is aimed toward the white passing latinx people who are anti-black and use the "POC" acronym to protect themselves from scrutiny. Join J & Lesly for PART 1 with our two guests, Jackie & Laisa, as we discuss own problematic pasts, how they are working to decolonize their mindset, how are they breaking the cycle of racism with their loved ones and how we teach our relatives and friends that black lives matter. This will be part 1 out of 2. Next week will be posting part 2. Hope you enjoy!

Mood has such an impact on our interpersonal relationships (which is why I tend to isolate) and music has such an impact on our mood. A study published in the Journal of affective disorders in 1995 by Bouhuys et al explored this. They played sad songs for 24 people who did not suffer from any kind of mood disorder and 12 (thats HALF) showed substantial differences in experienced depression after listening to the sad music. They perceived more rejection from “neutral” faces and rated faces overall more sad/angry, perceiving this sadness/anger as directed at them. They also perceived less invitation and happiness in faces than they had before listening to the music.
