Dimitrius

Everyone needs that friend who "gets it." Who's been through a few things and can lend that ever-elusive listening ear. Through personal experience and research, host Dimitrius Jones explores what it means to be a black, queer individual trying to navigate life in a world that's determined to convince him he's unworthy. But don't worry. He's got it all under control. Most days. After writing his self-help book, Life After Low Self-Esteem, Dimitrius wanted to create a space where people could discuss topics such as mental health, relationships, and other subjects that can be difficult to talk about. Dimitrius came up with the concept of the show while pondering the idea of what happens after you speak up for yourself. Through speaking, Dimitrius wanted to not only speak up for others like himself but provide a safe space for individuals to recount their own personal journeys. You never know when you just need to hear something from someone just like you. In fact, it can make all the difference.
