Podcasting Is the New Kink!

The newest podcast I had the pleasure of working on was Dem Bois Podcast, with host Shawn Aaron. Shawn had an amazing idea to create a platform where Trans men of color could share their transition stories and talk about other things relatable to their experiences. And like most new podcasters, he had no idea how to bring this vision to life. That's where I stepped in, and that's what this episode...

In any good relationship, whether it's romantic, platonic, business, or otherwise, there needs to be a reciprocal flow of energy. You need to be pouring into me as I'm pouring into you. A great example of this is my friendship/business relationship with The Professional Storyteller, Mark Travis Rivera. And in this episode, we dive into it. Mark and I have known each other since high school and we...

The first podcast I ever worked on was the Dance Boss Podcast. It was hosted by my mentor, Erin Pompa, and it gave me the chance to flex my creative muscles and challenge myself. It also set me on the path that I'm still on today. I'm so grateful to Erin for taking a chance on me and always pushing me to be my best self! And today, her and I have an amazing conversation about the Dance Boss Podcas...

Do you believe in coincidence? I don’t. I believe that there is a lesson in everything that happens in our lives. Even the things that hurt us, the shame and guilt we feel, the traumas we’ve had to endure, we can learn from all of it. And that’s how I choose to live my life, but in order to learn from the pain, I had to face it and allow myself to feel it and heal from it. And I didn’t l...

When I met my current partner, I was so focused on myself. I was growing my business. I was dating. And I was having fun. I was not looking for a husband at all, but he came into the picture and flipped everything! We met and fell for each other hard and quick! But it wasn’t all happily ever after...   Yes we loved each other, and yes we wanted to be in a relationship, but we had to learn how...

I grew up in a major code-switching era. I remember listening to my mom, my aunts, my friends moms', changing the way they spoke in front of their coworkers and colleagues. And I remember thinking, this must be normal. It was a regular thing to switch off and on the different parts of me, depending on when and where I was, and who was around. I would be one person at church, a whole different pers...

Religion is the ultimate tool of the patriarchy. It tells us how to live, how to think, and even how to just be. We are taught from a young age to bottle up our feelings and accept whatever is given to us. We are brainwashed to think that if we ever deviate from the plan the bible has laid out for us, then we are broken and we must seek forgiveness from God. But we know that that is all BS right?...

When I decided to go natural, I struggled. Natural salons and products were (and some still are) expensive AF! I had no idea how to care for my natural curls, and I didn't really like them. Black people are brainwashed to hate ourselves and that includes our hair. So I had to learn how to not only care for my kinks, but how to LOVE them too! Check out this episode of Podcasting Is the New Kink!, w...

For me, podcasting started out as a way to flex my creative muscles. It was a way for me to use my expensive degree, that I really wasn't using. A way for me to give a free resource to my community, since Black queer podcasters are definitely missing in this space. Then it became more about me. More about sharing my story in the hopes that it may help you. So welcome to part 3 of Podcasting Is the...
