Nerd Alert! If you love science, especially when it is about health and the body, then this interview is for you! My chat with naturopathic doctor, Taylor Bean, was fascinating and meaningful to me because I experienced a vaccine injury in 2008 that led to me ultimately living with a permanent ostomy today. Before it happened, I didn’t even know that vaccines had risks. Dr. Bean is an expert and educator on the importance of “Informed Consent” and what happens to our bodies when we take vaccines. She administers vaccines in her practice in such a way as to minimize potential adverse reactions and optimize health outcomes. She is also very knowledgeable about hormone therapy, homeopathy, and functional medicine.

Wow! I had the pleasure of interviewing Cid V. Brunet, a person I have been following and admiring for a few years now.

Learn about the projects we are working on now. This was definitely a heart-to-heart talk about all things vulnerable and surprising in sex work and life.

Sophie and I talked like we’ve known each other forever. The similarities in our journeys were shocking with both of us being sex workers, activists, mothers, and Crohn’s survivors.

There will definitely be future conversations to further explore the topics of stripping in the 90’s and doing activism because Sophie and I barely scratched the surface!

I’ve been an admirer and follower of Tara Burns for about two decades. I was extremely honoured and excited to interview her about her research, activism, and experiences as a sex worker and she did not disappoint! We talked about a few different important and fascinating subjects including sex trafficking, the way research can be taken out of context and used against sex workers, and the role of police in the lives of sex workers in Canada vs the USA since FOSTA/SESTA came into effect. Listen to how Tara was able to challenge and change laws in Alaska that were harming sex workers. She is a force, this woman!

Rae and I talked about kink, healing trauma through kink, consent and boundaries, latex, communication in the bedroom, some of the sexual challenges both men and women face and more.
