Cast Update:
Hey everyone welcome back.
We did kind of fall into a bit of a once a month rhythm, and that felt right, but of course, things are always subject to change as we listen more deeply to our bodies and are in equilibrium with the shifts of the planet in many ways. I’ll probably resume episodes with co-hosts again in May, and I'll share more about that, but before we get to that….I want to lift up Trans Day of Visibility that was on March 31st, and the start of Autism Awareness Month.
Here are some ways you can be a good ally for trans people:
-Seek out stories by transgender creators and support transgender creators. Which you're already doing right now! Seek out authentic stories and media that have been created by the transgender community, such as the Transgender Film Center, a non-profit organization that supports transgender filmmakers and their projects.
-Call your local LGBTQ center. See what kind of help they need, whether it be volunteering or offering a service that you're good at.
-Educate yourself. Allies can start by learning the basic terminology surrounding the transgender community. For example, people often confuse sexual orientation and gender identity. There are many places online that share tips on how to be a good ally.
This year’s World Autism Awareness Day 2021 theme is ‘Inclusion in the Workplace: Challenges and Opportunities in a Post-Pandemic World’
The UN said: “The Covid-19 pandemic has exposed and heightened glaring inequalities around the world, especially when it comes to income and wealth distribution, access to health care, protection under the law, and political inclusion.

Update about upcoming podcast episodes:
I’m still recording episodes, I’m just not releasing them yet. So far, I’ve recorded 3 episodes that will be released sometime after May, and I'll be recording a 4th one with a co-host in May and that will most likely be our next episode.
