EP007 with Dr. Derrais Carter he/him (@derraiscarter) we talk Black History Month, how to navigate academia as an “other,” belonging, and the power of storytelling. This episode is exciting and inspiring and makes you question, just how deep the rabbit hole goes. (Matrix reference anyone?)
Let me prepare you now, this conversation is heady in the best way. Derrais’ superpower is reframing ideas in a way that bends your brain and that can feel both exciting and uncomfortable. But stick with it because there are so many gems when it comes to claiming your space in institutions that aren’t meant for you, and so much more.
More About Derrais:
Derrais (pronounced like Paris) Carter is an interdisciplinary scholar and artist. He teaches courses on Black Critical Theory, Black Popular Music, and Black Queer Studies. Carter’s creative practice includes art books, experimental essays, and micro-essays. Guiding his creative process is a persistent desire to use archival texts and Black critical theory to narrate and engage Black life.

EP006 takes you behind the scenes with Gia Goodrich she/her (@gia.goodrich) and long-time friend, Producer Brittney Blair Wright she/her (@b_blairs), as we dig deeper into Gia's backstory, fuckups, failures, and all. And what would a true account be without mentioning imposter syndrome?
One of the myths about showing up boldly in the world is that you have to have confidence before you do or create the thing. In stark contrast, Gia shares how the podcast came to be through a process of reckless optimism (as our fabulous friend Jessi Duley would say), by learning about how to create the thing while you make it.
So not only to go into the origin story, but we chat about all of the deeper experiences and failures, (like becoming the next Jennifer Lopez) it took along the way to make everything happen.
If you've ever struggled with not fitting in, feeling like an outsider, and questioning if you're too much or not enough, this is the episode of you.

EP004 with the fabulous, Vinny Welsby AKA Fierce Fatty (they/them). In this episode, we dig deep into fatphobia to ask, “why are we so afraid of fat?” Diet culture is something we eat (no pun intended), sleep, and breathe, it’s in the commercials we see, the magazines we read, and in our workplaces and doctor’s offices. Unlearning takes courage but also raw and honest conversations about the relationship between fat and health, the psychology of dieting, and the role of business and politics in upholding these oppressive systems.
If you think about how much mental space you’ve given to thinking about your body and your weight, then you add those minutes up over your life, you’ve probably spent years of precious capacity worrying, trying to fix, and feeling unworthy. That’s why this conversation is so important because Vinnyis such an amazing force in self-acceptance.
You’re going to love this episode!
About Vinny: Vinny Welsby (they/them) is a world-leading expert on dismantling fatphobia and diet culture, TEDx speaker, best-selling author, and non-binary fatty! They went from being homeless, abused with self-esteem that was achingly low into the courageous fat activist and change maker they are today. Victoria helps people fall in love with themselves and is dedicated to shifting the way society views fat bodies.
