EPISODE 34: I WANT TO BE ABLE TO EXPRESS EMOTIONS
01:10:25
She's finally here!! The artist, the myth, the legend, Jordan Douglas! You already know her as the designer of our amazing logo, and CEO Lit Mag's artist, and now you'll know her in EPISODE 24: I WANT TO BE ABLE TO EXPRESS EMOTIONS! In this episode Emily, Jordan, and Melissa talk about how we maintain long-distance friendships, shopping ethically for clothes, creating art and the many artistic styles one can have, and what it was like working in a call center for the most popular online video streaming service.
In this week's episode, we talk with Jessica Martinez about majoring in creative writing, Instagram poets, if the beauty industry is a scam, how she became a fitness goddess, and dieting versus lifestyle changes. Trigger warning for the fitness/lifestyle segment: there's talk of dieting, emotional eating, and unhealthy workout trends.
Melissa and Hannah are joined by previous guest Michelle Rocca to talk about life in Hawaii, and more seriously, her work with sex offenders and how they can be integrated back into society. We also talk about Harvey Weinstein (like how it’s never okay to sexualize your employees), the #MeToo movement, and how difficult it is for victims to come forward after a trauma. Trigger warning for talk of sexual assault and harassment.
Melissa, Emily, and Hannah are joined by the amazing Allison Moon this week! They discuss Allison's book Girl Sex 101, coming out, sexual education, pleasure, and consent, and more!
Aaaaand we're back! We get a little emotional in this episode as we talk about the Parkland shooting that happened a month ago today (February 14, 2018) because honestly we're tired of things like this happening. On top of why we think arming teachers is ridiculous and why we need gun control, we also discuss why Black Lives Matters teens are being pushed under the rug in comparison (spoiler alert: it's because people suck). On a more uplifting note, we also talk about Melissa's exciting news, Emily's adventures in Denver and why she needs to play Mass Effect like yesterday in EPISODE 30: WE NEED MORE CALL-OUTS!
PS: Listen to Talk It Out's episode about Black Panther!
We're mixing things up this episode where Melissa chats (and drinks) with guest Hannah White! They talk about the significance of tattoos (specifically stick and poke), the adventures of living in a van with fur children (because pets are our babies) and experiencing Mama Nature, the importance of having a lady tribe, and more! Listening to this episode may inspire some serious wanderlust, or maybe to go get a tattoo. Don't miss EPISODE 29: HIPPIE VOODOO MAGIC SHIT!
EPISODE 28: WE'RE REALLY A STORY OF CYCLICAL GROWTH
01:22:26
In today’s episode, we’re joined by the lovely Natalie and Kelly of The Feminist Furies podcast! We talk reproductive rights and health, “problematic” TV shows/characters and how to compartmentalize, women’s roles in said media, the law, and America’s shitty history.
Your favorite ladies are back and they're talking about a huge issue almost everyone deals with at some point: ANXIETY. Melissa and Emily are joined by life coach Carol Shannon, who wrote a one-woman play called "Three Car Nice". The ladies discuss with Carol about why people tend to avoid talking about anxiety and stress, why boundaries are important, and how to set and keep boundaries up (even with friends)! Carol strives to be a safe place for women who struggle with anxiety and she hopes to bring joy to everyone she can while helping them be real with their anxiety. Come be real with them on EPISODE 27: YOU CAN ALWAYS CHANGE YOUR MIND.
