Episode notes

I think the biggest part of it was visibility. I only really understood these things within me when I saw it in others. That was, and also experience. Like I don't know, I kind of branch into two sections, like sexuality and gender,. But for me, it was very separate. I realized I was gay or queer first. It took a while to walk that path because I had never done it before. And it also took a lot of me breaking down so many barriers about me being broken.

This week we sit down for an intimate conversation with the incredible Claud Bailey, a queer film director and queer youth advocate based in Sydney, Australia to discuss what our gender and sexuality means for our 20s. We dive into the meaning of community, gender expression, the beauty of queerness and how to navigate coming of age as a queer person in the 21st century, along with the role of being a responsible and compassionate ally. Alongside this we also explore the power of rituals, the relationship between pleasure and pain and the role of beauty in enjoying our lives to the fullest. Listen now to hear more from our wonderful guest!
