In episode eight, we're changing things up a bit. You'll hear a short message from me then my aunt, Claudine Beeson (yes, fam comin' in!) who is a yoga teacher based in Illinois will guide us through a Tonglen meditation. This Tibetan Buddhist meditation helps us open our hearts and awaken the compassion for ourselves and for others.

If you have a meditation practice, I would love for you to find time in your day to join us. If you don't have a meditation practice, that's a-okay! Meditation is a helpful tool to become more present in your day, and it really helps me feel more grounded– hopefully, you will too!

About The Guest:

Claudine Beeson has been a yoga instructor since 1999. She is also the host of the podcast “The Tattered Mat," a collection of weekly bits of wisdom shared in her classes and stories told by her students of what we become over time. With our smiles and our struggles and our healing and our breath. As Claudine so famously says, “We with our tattered mats. We are enough.”

In episode seven, I sit down with Irma of Dirty South Sex Ed to talk about s-e-x. We cover a lot of topics we tend to keep hush-hush, but guess what?! We’re not keeping it hush-hush in this episode. We talk about pushing past stigma, social conditioning, and our upbringings to live a more pleasure filled life. Some topics we cover are:

  • The complex layers of sexuality and pleasure for people of color
  • Baby steps in exploring our sexuality and moving toward a more pleasure-filled life
  • Healing from sexual shame and healing
  • Plus, we answer all of your sex questions!!

about the guest:

Irma is a certified sex educator in Texas and client services manager at Jane’s Due Process, where she helps Texas minors exercise their reproductive rights to an abortion. Prior to joining the JDP team, she was an abortion counselor at a local Austin clinic, as well as a birth doula. Now as the sexpert on staff, her focus is to connect the harm of sex-negative anti-abortion rhetoric into a wider sex-positive reproductive justice framework where marginalized people are shamed and robbed of their autonomy. She believes that when Black, Indigenous, and other people of color experience pleasure on their own terms, it’s an act of protest, but most importantly--self-care.
