My Difficult Conversation

Society EN ↓ 25 episodes

In this podcast I discuss all the difficult conversations I want to have with people from social justice, to relationships, to art to healthcare and anything and everything that's difficult. I grew up with much of my work and life exploited for films and art dating back to over a decade ago - that has reached the heights of Cannes and the Oscars, including network TV. In this time there has been a lot difficult situations, involving human rights, trauma, gaslighting, relationships, opportunity, art, doublespeak and human value. It's time to start having these difficult conversations.

What to do? 04.11.2025

In this episode I talk about what to do? How to fill time when bored - and for me what can I do when there are so many restrictions to participating in life?

AI and the major danger 03.11.2025

Talking about AI and how it can help or hurt humanity - but at its current stage how it was built on a flawed system of human rights restrictions - therefore flawed by further enforcing a negative system and turning aspects of human rights into a game which is fundamentally against human rights - and how it works by inputting data which sets up a series of rules that are major danger to human righ...

Rest and Relaxation 03.11.2025

In this episode I talk about the basic human need for rest and relaxation. One of the most basic human functions is sleep, accessible to everyone - and how because of many aspects of human rights violations - I have never been able to experience that complete state of rest because of the constant living nightmare of the violations of my human rights that has kept me immensely tired.

Let's go 23.10.2025

Talking about when people say 'Let's go!' often, and I'm always left wondering - Let's go where? I do get the Disney reference, though in this episode I talk about the use of this phrase, and how when motivating people, it's important to know why and where - as for how we go, everyone gets to different parts of their life in different ways - we all have different forms of t...

Personal Profanity (Part 2) 20.10.2025

Talking about personal profanity on how intentional profanity has been put upon me my whole life by not even being allowed proper economic and social security because of human rights exploitation, in all sorts of ways which has been extremely abusive at times, but also how I have been personally profane to myself, from a certain risky situation to overly farting in my favorite outfit, as a method...

Personal Profanity 20.10.2025

F*** - Talking about personal profanity and the sometimes creative and shocking insults I've come up with as tools in my fight for rights, rather than a loss of control, as methods of rebellion to injustice and standing up for civil rights by showcasing uncivil statements a lack of rights causes - as a way to bring an abusive 'audience' member into my world to let them experience the e...

Knowing the neighbors 17.10.2025

In this episode I talk about neighborly interactions, what makes a good and bad neighbor, how often neighbors tend to cross my boundaries but set unfair ones for themselves as a method of isolating me and further exploiting my exposed vulnerability - but also when neighbors have shown aspects of community and life through times of me escaping abuse - this is a long episode where I talk about neigh...

Yes I changed my name... and it's Lovely 15.10.2025

Talking about changing my name, and how we are often labelled into boxes, and why its important to find ways to be less limited, stand up against unjust limits and not impose our limits on others personal choices.

This economy blows 15.10.2025

Talking about the use of the economy to harass, humiliate, and undermine me, in ways that keep the systems that should be equal and there for people, become systems I fear, that make the future feel hopeless when control and restrictions also take form of economic weapons , like using bad humor of 69 to overcast the damages it does to me.

What Causes Trauma? 17.11.2024

In this final episode of My Difficult Conversation (for at least this year) I talk about what causes trauma - and my extent with dealing with it for 16 years as a result of modern slavery, exploitation and aspects of human trafficking - how it has developed and how it has reached a point where I needed to talk about it.

Internal posture 09.10.2024

This episode talks about internal posture, how internal posture can affect outer posture, and how we can focus on our own internal posture and how finding the right alignment is a work in progress, on a spectrum, that requires sometimes experimentation and being aware of the situations that cause us to be too weak willed or too uptight and how we receive in life in terms of humanity.

Rational and Irrational Fears 01.09.2024

In this episode I talk about the complex dance between rational and irrational fears, based on existing situations or past trauma, and how past abuses of power and a lack of self-determination can leave a lasting impact, complicating the ability to distinguish and navigate these fears effectively, how compartmentalizing our emotions can help us manage them better, learning to strategize from the p...

Oh No 25.08.2024

Talking about Oh No moments, and how we can strategically use the power of oh no moments, when it's beneficial and when it's not, to empower our mind, heart and humanity.

The Act of Giving Up 24.08.2024

From relationships, to career, to aspirations to ourselves - how do we decide what to give up and not give up to lighten the load on us, how do we see past societal perceptions of never giving up -- and allow ourselves to make informed decisions whether that even be putting things on hold or redistributing efforts so that we can have more positive long term experiences.

Special Ocassions 23.08.2024

As a person with a history of people causing trauma during special occasions such as my birthday - how do I approach celebrating occasions and how can we all find ways to celebrate occasions without giving in to the expectations and society preconceptions of how a holiday should be spent, how we can remove this idea of coping and in turn take control of the narrative of celebrations without sticki...
