26. Sabine Maxine: Creating Community at the Intersections

Sabine Maxine creates at the intersections of multiple identities--Queer, Black, LatinX, Indigenous, grew up poor and more. She'ts a Virgo boss babe whose latest creation has quickly become the Queer Met Ball--the annual Project Q fundraiser ball. Sabine runs A Tribe Called Queer, Queer Bazaar, Patty Wack Vintage, designs plus size clothing, and has pop-up events. In addition, with Project Q is maintaining a QPOC co-working space. In our conversation we talk about navigating grief, time expenditure as a community organizer, growing up on welfare, getting clean, entrepreneurial adventures and, poignantly, advice to a younger self. "Stop seeking validation and love from outside people."
