Today's guest is N3VLYNNN; a multidisciplinary artist, wellness practitioner, and dancer. While working in urban, "progressive" cities, N3VLYNNN was drawn to “queer” art and politics, but it wasn’t long before she began to see things that well, seemed a little weird. For one thing, a man, over six feet tall, who called himself a woman, sexually assaulted her friend. Well before the peak of gender madness, back in 2013, she made a youtube video called “Transwomen Are Not Female.” The backlash to her foray into gender critical politics was swift and merciless, very nearly wiping her a ..read more

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 compromise ..read more

Growing up Latter Day Saints, Olivia was held to very strict expectations. The church and homeschooling offered glimmers of women’s spiritual power, but Olivia needed greater freedom of expression. For instance, she chafed at her family’s outpouring of grief when she revealed she was interested in dating women. She tried to be patient with them as they grieved her inevitable separation from them in the afterlife, but she felt rejected. This, along with the restrictions internalized from her childhood, drove her to confuse authentic liberation with the so-called "liberal" ideologies she encount ..read more

Diagnosed 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 ..read more

For Charlie, it all started at age five, jealous of boys, because they got to take their shirts off and stand to pee. By age seven, she had a therapist who told her and her parents that this was symptomatic of something called gender dysphoria. Ecstatic that she would get to ‘be a boy,’ Charlie was ushered down the medical path, with her vital records and name altered at age nine, and later put on puberty blockers and wrong sex hormones. Her family asked her if she was sure she wanted all of this. Her response? “I’ve never been more sure of anything in my entire life.” All twelve years of life ..read more

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.

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 ..read more
