Andy Dennis // Masculinity from a homosexual lens
Two things have become very clear to me since speaking with Andy; the first being that you cannot judge a book by its cover at all and the second being that I have some inbuilt implicit biases.

EJs Insightful Sparks // Jannik Blair
The three insightful sparks that I took away from the conversation I had with Jannik a few weeks back are incredibly powerful once we become aware of them. It's so easy to go with the flow of life and get caught up in what society is driving us towards and what other people are saying. It's hard…

Welcome my friend

Episode 20 // Insight into my story and journey thus far
This episode to start with didn't sit right with me. I had the idea of telling my story through the podcast a while ago.
