Sun Seed Community Podcast Goddess

Que Beyonce's "MY POWER' song cause we are gettin' into it for the final episode! This episode was inspired by the conversations I had with my community about how we define power and creative energy. Some call it Asè, some call it Qi . . . what do you call it?
After this episode you might just find yourself wanting to reconnect with your own power. . .and check out Goddexx in their sparkly blue one-piece. 


Goddexx aka La Espiritista (They/Goddexx) is a performance artist, full spectrum life coach, and intuitive guide. They are the author of “Butterfly: Una Transformación,” a collection of poetry which provides a spiritual framework around the process of inner transformation through four phases of metamorphosis: release. renewal. retreat. rebirth.
Their experience of religious trauma has led them to a path of integration & celebration of the whole being. Through their work, they explore a variety of themes ranging from healing, self-love, sexuality, faith, intimacy, gender expression, trauma, reclamation.


Joshua Young(they/them) teaches guided meditation and emotional intelligence internationally. They focus on creating a channel for empowering those who work within therapeutic, caregiving, and wellness-focused communities. Joshua offers “Renegotiating Reality: Welcoming Inclusion Workshop” that serves to cultivate community by helping to define our roles as individuals in a community, disengaging from perspectives of separation, understanding our capacity to provide, and feeling empowered to make the best choices for ourselves and those around us.


Tiff Lin (they/them) is a queer 1.5 gen Taiwanese-American multidimensional mystic and artist living, playing, working in unceded Ohlone territory (Oakland, CA). As a Yang Earth Dragon, their mission is to help folx unlock their true gifts and have the courage to step into their own unique path. Tiff offers embodiment coaching and assist those navigating life transition and existential angst through the wisdom of BaZi Chinese Astrology. They are currently organizing in a few movements within Asian diaspora liberation spaces, Fierce Vulnerability Network, Resource Generation- committed to racialized healing, climate justice, redistribution of money, land and power. Their role within this greater revolution is to be an embodiment of joy, presence, pleasure, creation and inner abundance. To Tiff, life isn’t about what you do, but about the spirit in which you live. And they intend to follow that soul mantra while creating art and welcoming catharsis along the way.

Is closure a myth? Do we have to be emotionally open with ALL the people we know? What is a healthy amount of acceptance? These are the questions that Big Wind, Dalia, Julia, Kiam and I talked about navigating.  I think we all ask these questions when trying to trust after harm and experiencing grief.  What we don't always talk about is how very human and natural these experiences and thoughts are.

Big Wind(they/them) was born at the headwaters of the Missouri River to A Northern Arapaho mother and Gros Ventre father in Great Falls, Montana. Big Wind was raised on the Wind River Reservation in Wyoming and enjoys being outdoors, hiking, and swimming in the nearest water way. As a Indigenous Two Spirit, they believe in the art of balancing both masculine and feminine energies, and how taping into that power, can lead to a more balanced approach to accountability and transformative justice. 


Dalia Kinsey(no pronouns) is a Registered Dietitian and creator of the Body Liberation for All podcast, a show dedicated to amplifying the health and happiness of LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC folx. On a mission to spread joy, reduce suffering, and eliminate health disparities in the QTBIPOC community, Dalia rejects diet culture (which is rooted in white supremacy) and teaches folks how to use nutrition as a self-care and personal empowerment tool.


Julia Mallory(she/they) is a storyteller and grief worker working with a range of mediums from text to textiles. Their latest book, Survivor’s Guilt is an archive of survivorship that chronicles generational grief through photographs, poetry, and prose. She is also the founder of the creative container, Black Mermaids and serves as the Senior Poetry Editor for Raising Mothers. Their work can be found in Barrelhouse, The Offing, the Black Speculative Arts Movement exhibition "Curating the End of the World: RED SPRING”, Stellium Literary Magazine, MadameNoire, and elsewhere. Their short, experimental film, Grief is the Glitch, premiered this spring on the film festival circuit.  


Kiam Marcelo Junio(they/them)  (b. Philippines) is a multimedia artist, holistic wellness coach, and a US Navy veteran. As an artist, Kiam explores themes of corporeality, identity, and time. Their work eludes rigid definitions of discipline, exploring and expressing through all five senses. Kiam also coaches creative professionals committed to developing healthy habits, a confident presence, and fulfilling relationships. Their mission is rooted in helping people create changes in their inner and outer worlds by developing deep self-knowledge, sustainable self-love, and authentic self-expression. Kiam envisions a world where artists lead the way, forging new paths for future generations.

So, here are a few folx who are reclaiming their Spiritual and cultural lineages in radically gender-euphoric and magickal ways.

CONTENT WARNING:
This episode covers wanted and unwanted sexual experiences, and uses genital and sexual language.


Hará AraMaya of The Monarch Temple is a Sex Witch and Pleasure Embodiment Mentor. Even the way they start the episode is so grounding. Join us as we talk about divine sex and creative power, reclaiming the sacred whore. Sex is a powerful tool and asks a lot of both partners. So how do we stay present, set intentions, and bring this sensual practice outside of the sexual realm. Talking with them was a true gift and I hope you enjoy the last episode of the season.

Zeloszelos Marchandt of Ten Tiny Talks is a dear friend and collaborator so  when we get to going...it’s a whole ass vibe. In between our giggles and goobey-ness we talk about the complexities of navigating sex and relationships as Black queer and trans folx. Love is hard, real, and beautiful and what we’re learning is it takes some brave accountability.

I was greatly humbled by my conversation with Cameroonian entrepreneur and LGBT+ activist,  Bandy Kiki. She clearly broke down African queer history while we navigated the differences and nuances of being Black queer sapphic folx from drastically different cultures and continents. Join our conversation as Kiki shares the reality of cultural icebergs, tips on dating other Black womxn, and honoring communal life and culture.
