LET IT OUT

Shownotes Transcript

There wasn’t an episode last week because I was and am listening more than talking. We were muted to amplify voices of BIPOC last week. And I am committed to following, amplifying and supporting Black voices moving forward. This is our 300th episode. Which feels like a big milestone to celebrate, but also an opportunity to reflect and own how I can continue to improve and amplify the voices and work of marginalized people.

Mental Health Resources for the Black community:

The Loveland Therapy Fund) - helps cover therapy costs for Black women and girls

The Nina Pop Mental Health Recovery Fund) and The Tony McDade Mental Health Recovery Fund) from the Okra Project - emergency mutual aid fund that raises money to pay for one-time mental health therapy sessions for Black Trans people with licensed Black therapists

BEAM (Black Emotional and Mental Health)) - Online Black-centered support and healing

Fat Women of Color Collective) - private online community led by Ivy Felicia created to support fat women of color in healing their relationships with their bodies

Show notes:

Questions I'm pondering:

  • How can I amplify voices of others?

  • How can I notice my blindspots and correct them quickly?

  • What actions am I taking? Daily? Weekly? Ongoing? 

  • Making a lot of lists. 

  • How can I listen more? 

  • How can I hold myself accountable? 

  • How can I hold community accountable? 

  • How can I fight for justice?
