    It's what you think, but not what you fear

    This was a great Zoom conversation with Lynsi Stevens, Head Witch behind Crystal Case Apothecary. Obsessed with magical devices and transformational items from her favorite childhood cartoons and anime, she distills the spirit of fantasy, mysticism, DnD, and creates medication cases for magical beings on their grand life’s journey. Her love of anime propelled her into a career in entertainment & talent management, where she was able to create anime and comic con expo marketing, programming, and events internationally. She is a queer alt model, and enjoys indie games, comics, and immersive experiences. Inspired by her own chronic healing journey, through C.C.A she assists BIPOC creatives and allies in shining their light, and co-creating a new paradigm of holistic Celestial Body Wellness with The Universe. Lynsi is currently working her magic at C.C.A, and training with the National Patient Advocacy Foundation, insuring The Global Majority receives better care from their healthcare providers. Frankly, you’re in for a treat! Lynsi will be joining us at Decolonize and Discover this year! This is a public episode.

    Journee LaFond receives the BLM Community Impact Award

    Last night, we took a break from our event production schedule to head to the Currier Gallery of Art in Manchester, NH, to attend the Black Lives Matter NH Awards. The annual event celebrates the amazing voices in the Granite State working to uplift BIPOC, Disabled, and LGBTQIA+ voices and representation. One of whom you may recognize… our founder, Journee LaFond. They’d probably be a little embarrassed we’re sharing the video here, but their speech brings into sharp focus what we’re trying to do with this festival. To uplift voices, share community, and come together to make great things. We hope you’ll join us June 7-9, where we’ll be able to take what’s outlined in this speech and put it into practice.

  7. It's a great time to be a nerd - Tha True Original GATA, Monique Dupree

    It's a great time to be a nerd - Tha True Original GATA, Monique Dupree

    Monique Dupree does more than we do! An American actor who's been in horror, high drama, and comedy, she has severe chops. Speaking of chops, she's also a force in the world of independent wrestling both in the ring and behind the curtain. When not doing that, she's an entrepeneur, cosplayer, burlesque performer, and maybe an omega level mutant?  We talk about her early career, her amazing work behind the scenes and in the ring, raising ten (!) children with her talented husband, burlesque and not knowing "how to fail." Monique is a fierce dynamo, and the type of polymath you need to witness in action.  Our theme music is Pimp My Pride by Aesyme, rights purchased through epidemicsound.com Don't forget to get your tickets at DecolonizeandDiscover.com. The festival is June 16-18. Come party with us!    This is a public episode. If you would like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit decolonize.substack.com
