Whose Body Is It

It’s not exactly Millennials' fault that many of us are stuck in extended adolescence. We’re bearing a wound around adulthood that didn’t start with our generation. We’re working under fluorescent lighting instead of under the sun, hustling in the city instead of in the small tribes we evolved from, and striving for the “empowerment” the Spice Girls promised. Endocrine disruptors surround us. We work with screens instead of with our hands. The conveniences of living non-biologically are certainly comfortable, but they come with consequences: we've become soft, immature, our vitality compromised. Many women in our thirties are rethinking the cultural programming that discouraged us from having our babies at an age that would afford us the energy and resilience to more easily bear the challenges of motherhood, while garnering the support from our own parents. There are plenty of benefits to building up wisdom, life experience, and financial resources before you have kids, but there’s grief too. What happens when we exclusively put our self-worth into our careers or accomplishments instead of embodying the portal of life and death that is our birthright as women? Today's guest, body worker and poly-vagal nerve practitioner Danielle Evans, helps people heal their nervous system. Danielle shares about her process deprogramming from liberal feminist rhetoric and discusses how the surface of our skin connects to the deepest layers of our nervous system. Danielle reminds us that the body remembers everything from pre-birth to our present moment, and explains how we can self-source safety in our body and quiet the anxious mind.

Know in 4 hrs: Decide whether or not to freeze your eggs, do IVF or surrogacyKristin Hauser joins us today to talk about cultivating female fertility outside of the medical model. She has been working in the fertility space for over ten years, as an acupuncturist and sex and relationship coach. Kristin has seen all manner of fertility issues, from women later in their fertile years, who’ve been working to the point of burn out, to the less talked about, younger women whose cycles were damaged by hormonal birth control. Inventions such as intrauterine insemination, IVF, to surrogacy, are touted by the fertility industry as the best path to motherhood if you don’t conceive within a few months of trying.As an acupuncturist, Kristin tried to serve women within this model, but soon realized it was out of integrity for her. She encourages women and men to consider their fertility as an extension of creativity, of their physical and spiritual wellbeing, and she uses a variety of methods that never require invasive testing or surgery. In this episode Kristin discusses fertility struggles are a catalyst for sexual reawakening, and how staying out of the mainstream medical model, women can come into motherhood in power.Kristin's class Restoring Your Fertility and Ovarian Vitality is a great place to start for women who want to truly understand their bodies and improve their fertility with ease and without medical intervention.Follow Kristin on Instagram⁠⁠Support the Whose Body Is It Podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ →⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Shop Activist Stickers⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ →⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Whose Body Is It Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ →⁠⁠⁠⁠Music //⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Time by ASHUTOSH⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Music promoted by Free Stock Music⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License⁠⁠⁠⁠

Know in 4 hrs: Decide whether or not to freeze your eggs, do IVF or surrogacyDiagnosed with endometriosis at age 19, Marche was told she would probably never have babies. It was the early 2000s, post women’s liberation and even when Marche found herself expectedly pregnant she considered termination. Before she could decide what she wanted to do, Marche was incorrectly diagnosed with a blighted ovum, and told she’d miscarry. About to start grad school and ridden with grief, Marche took abortifacients, only to find out the day after that she’d been incorrectly diagnosed. A thorough look into Marche’s health history and the ways she was victimized by the medical industry, sets the backdrop for how she became the perfect consumer of the fertility industry.Marche details the dehumanization she experienced during the IUI/IVF process, the tens of thousands of dollars down the drain, the evisceration of love between she and her husband during this time, and how she ultimately shifted her perspective from seeing her attempt to rent her best friend’s womb as camaraderie, to the unjustifiable utilization and commodification of women’s bodies.⁠Support the Whose Body Is It Podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ →⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Shop Activist Stickers⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ →⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Whose Body Is It Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ →⁠⁠⁠Music //⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Time by ASHUTOSH⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Music promoted by Free Stock Music⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License⁠⁠⁠

Today I get personal with my dear friend Serendipiti Day as we share the stories of our first exposures to porn, how we navigate conversations around porn with potential sexual partners, and how we went from holding a liberal feminist analysis of porn to a radical feminist analysis.

In 2006, Amanda's doctors told her that her silicone breast implants were a completely safe, permanent solution to change to her silhouette after breastfeeding. She looked down and saw ‘ski-slopes,’ and when she compared herself to other women, she felt she came up short. Her implants were cold, stiff, and eventually began leaking toxins inside her body. As her symptoms worsened, she discovered that her doctors did not have the data to back up claims that her breast implants were perfectly safe, or that her mysterious, autoimmune reactions were coincidental. Amanda is now a psychotherapist and author of Busting Free, a comprehensive guide to physical and psychological wellbeing for women at any stage of the breast explant process. She works with women on healing the beliefs that lead us to question our value, allowing us to be manipulated by predatory marketing. Breasts are not just about beauty and self-esteem, they stand in for our self-conception as women and as mothers. That’s also why breast removal is pushed so hard on women who dis-identify with their female bodies. We explore how cosmetic surgery, an industry dominated by male surgeons, works to support the sexualization and objectification of women. We also dive deep into the appetitive effect, and the illusion of ‘informed consent.’ Amanda also exposes the conveyor belt from breast cancer to breast reconstruction, and the epidemic of women who experience breast implant illness after being told that breast cancer was the worst fate they could face. Even if you’ve never had breasts implants, you’ll relate to the discussion of the desire to belong based on the shape and size of our bodies.

⁠Keep Your Kids Out of The Trans Cult⁠Today I speak with Leigh Janet Marshall, a biologist and formerly trans identified woman from the Bay Area. Early exposure to pornography shaped Leigh's understanding of what a woman is and convinced her she was better off as a gay man. Conceived by artificial insemination, Leigh met her father at age 18, and then connected with one of her biological sisters, donor conceived, who was also struggling with alienation from her female body. With Leigh's constellation of early abandonment wounding and female socialization, she coped by becoming anorexic and later bulimic. In an effort to find authenticity, Leigh and her sister committed to transitioning together, but this was not the cure for her despair that she thought it would be. Leigh now recognizes transition as soft suicide; yet another form of self-harm used to express the shame of being a woman. Leigh woke up to the fact that she was targeted for medicalization but not before pursuing sterilization at age 29. Leigh sees gender affirming care for youth, as blunt a tool for population control as China’s one-child policy. Leigh connects many dots of the transhumanist agenda, from reproductive technology, to pornography, trans ideology, and artificial intelligence, and shines light on how trans ideology is a gateway for population control and the personification of machines.Follow Leigh on Twitter Follow Leigh on InstagramSupport the Whose Body Is It Podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠Shop Activist Stickers⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Whose Body Is It Website⁠⁠⁠⁠Music: ⁠⁠⁠⁠Time by ASHUTOSH⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠Music promoted by Free Stock Music⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License

⁠Keep Your Kids Out of The Trans Cult⁠Today we continue the conversation around the dovetailing of gender identity and colonization of indigenous populations with New Zealand Maori activist and organizer Michelle Uriarau. Michelle is the co-founder of Women's Action Group Southwest Victoria and Mana Wāhine Kōrero and began her activist work with refugees in Australia. Michelle was radicalized on the issue of synthetic sex because of its potentially genocidal impact on Maori populations. “Indigeneity brings a unique perspective from other women,” she says, “we see gender identity as a second colonization and we are not even sure we will survive it.” Through colonization Michelle notes, "language is removed by force, you speak, read, think, dream in your language. Everything that makes you you is expressed through language, so when it’s removed, can you imagine what that does to you? It leaves you like an empty vessel.’ In this empty vessel, post-modern, western, European, and academic paradigms can be imposed.Michelle sees a real and present danger to the Maori people, who already experience higher rates of suicide, incarceration, and now with the imposition of gender ideology, sterilization and extermination of future generations. We discuss the organizing strategy and tactics of feminist activists in Australia and New Zealand and break down the violence and media spin following Kellie Jay Keen's Let Women Speak Auckland event in March.Watch Michelle's Speech at the #LetWomenSpeak event in Melbourne on March 18, 2023Follow Mana Wāhine Kōrero on TwitterRead Michelle's WritingSupport Mana Wāhine KōreroListen to Di Landy's interview about the violence at #LetWomenSpeak Auckland, NZ Support the Whose Body Is It Podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Shop Activist Stickers⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Whose Body Is It Website⁠⁠⁠⁠Music: ⁠⁠⁠⁠Time by ASHUTOSH⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠Music promoted by Free Stock Music⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License

⁠Keep Your Kids Out of The Trans Cult⁠After last week’s deadly shooting at The Covenant School in Nashville, Tennessee there was a lot of confusion about the sex of the shooter. Was it a man? A 'trans man'? Was it a man pretending to be a woman or a woman pretending to be a man? It makes you wonder if the confusion is actually a critical part of constructing a narrative where trans-identified people can't be held accountable for their actions, and in fact, today's guest Robbie Rose points out that CBS was intentionally not reporting the sex of shooter Audrey Hale, just as the media obscured the identity of trans-identified female school shooter Maya 'Alec' McKinney in Colorado, in 2019. Robbie returns to the podcast for an enlightening discussion of the profiles of school shooters in recent history. She points out that most school shooters were bullied for being gay (whether or not they were) and that they also often struggled with autism and behavioral problems. Society's answer to mental health issues is to medicate these children and young adults, and Robbie notes that these people are being given a cocktail that has never been tested - one of antidepressants, mood stabilizers, legal methamphetamines and more recently, steroids in the form of synthetic testosterone. Robbies takes us through a concise history of autism, causes of traumatic brain injury and asks why the media never seems to highlight the fact that these people are highly medicated and if trans ideology might in fact be a coverup for widespread legal poisoning.Email Robbie: hello@robbierose.com Follow Robbie on TwitterThe Autism VaccineThe Age of AutismVideo footage of TRAs holding up 7 fingersDaily Beast ReportReport of Alex McKinney, female 2019 Denver School Shooter on and off medsGaslighting Mothers, Transgenderism & Vaccine Injury with Robbie RoseThe MRC-5-Transgender Connection with Robbie RoseSupport the Whose Body Is It Podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Shop Activist Stickers⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Whose Body Is It Website⁠⁠⁠Music: ⁠⁠⁠Time by ASHUTOSH⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠Music promoted by Free Stock Music⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License

⁠Keep Your Kids Out of The Trans Cult →⁠Today I speak with one of my best friends, Amy Nowlin. Amy is a married mother of 5, a writer and musician. Amy asks what reproductive sovereignty looks like on the procreative end (rather than the abortion side) particularly for women in longterm heterosexual relationships and shares her journey from birthing in the hospital, to birthing at home with licensed midwives to then with her 5th baby, birthing freely, unassisted. Amy decided to protect her postpartum bubble after 4 bouts of postpartum rage and depression and recalls questioning the rage she felt as her newborn baby was passed around to 12 different family members. She now acknowledges this as a healthy mammalian instinct but at the time remembers thinking she was just being "too hormonal" or "too sensitive." Amy describes the societal pressure to bounce back and do it all as a metaphorical anorexia, one of restriction, the practice of internalizing "receiving as a shortcoming," and the "I can do anything you can do, bleeding" mindset, where you might invisiblize yourself and needs as a woman. This she notes is the challenge that comes along with starting to receive from a place of biological vulnerability. The transformation she went through after prioritizing her mental and spiritual health in her 5th postpartum certainly paid off and Amy believes receiving and resting while bleeding during menstruation is a training ground for recovery after birth. We also discuss the pitfalls of constantly looking outside ourselves, for rules, diets and protocols, how Amy parents teenage boys and the bizarre phenomena of men teaching women how to be "more in the feminine." Follow Amy on Instagram Support the Whose Body Is It Podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠Shop Activist Stickers⁠⁠⁠⁠Whose Body Is It Website⁠⁠⁠⁠Time by ASHUTOSH⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Music promoted by Free Stock Music⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License
