S2 Ep 1: Regeneration with RAD

from The Bitter Truth · host Abbey Joy Cmiel

I am so grateful to share this episode with my dear friend RAD Brelvi, host of Radical Queers Podcast! RAD is such an inspiration to me in every way. RAD is an artist, musician, activist, a loving friend, and a true connection to spirit. Join us as we dive into the cycles of life reflected in our hormonal cycles, the seasons of the Earth, and the cycles of the moon and stars. We share our experiences of the current astrology: Jupiter returning to Cancer, Saturn returning to Aries, and a Pluto Cazimi (if you’ve never even heard of these, you’re not alone!)RAD also shares potent life experiences of connecting to one’s reproductive cycle with a queer lens, the initiation of perimenopause, chest/breast reduction surgery and hormone replacement therapy. In this episode we celebrate the seasons of our life, the depths of winter, and the beauty of queerness. Listen in and share your thoughts with us!Thank you to Matt Huges for the amazing Dreamscape OracleThe Bitter Truth herbs of this episode: * Rose (Rosa Californica)* Mullein (Verbascum thapsus)You can find more about RAD at @radfolkmusic and @radicalqueerspodcast on Instagram!
