TUNGKOL SA EPISODE NA ITO
Welcome back -- excited to share this with you now!
A quick update on simplybybeing.com — the members-only blog has been discontinued, but you can still join our mailing list!
[ A disclaimer for the title -- sex work can be healing work, but this is not to over-glorify what can be an intensely exploitative and dangerous industry for some people — particularly in countries and states where regulation doesn't exist and workers are operating without state or government protection of their rights and safety. ]

This time, we're going to have Gabrielle Griffith.

Gabrielle works through a trauma-informed and anti-oppressive lens to help families have a healthy and happy transition into parenthood that is sex-positive and inclusive to all gender and sexual identities. Gabrielle is a polyamorous, non-binary and queer identified parent who lives proudly with all of their intersecting identities in Toronto, ON.

Y'all are gonna really love this one, so listen until the end.
We talked about: institutionalization in higher education, parenting the self while parenting children, codependency as a main driver of colonization, and much more. You can also stick around for the last quarter of the podcast if you want to hear some really interesting ideas from Gab on the stigma that sex workers face and the intersection of sex work and shadow work. Their insights may inspire me to do a solo episode on redefining sex work in a much broader way as it relates to patriarchal society.

Thanks for listening! If you're wondering what's on the horizon, I have a choice between 3 episodes with co-hosts that have already been recorded. I'm recording another episode with a dear queerfriend and philosopher tomorrow, who has a demonstrated history of making an impact in his community in the mental health and psychology sector. I'm very much looking forward to sharing that interview with you as well.
