Episode 19: Your Limitations On Me Are Not My Problem (+ Boy, Snow, Bird)
<p>hello hello! </p> <p>thank you for being here. i'm very grateful to be here too :) </p> <p>recently in this past year, i've been learning how to make friends, what i like and don't like, how to say no again, basically how to be myself again after deciding to be sober and being committed to taking care of my mental health. it's not a straight line in terms of learning and applying those lessons to my life, but it's important that i take a moment to fully realize that all of the old ways that i used to do things just won't work anymore. that includes interrogating all of the limitations that other people have put on me and why i felt i had to believe those limitations. i talk about a lot - why the adult/child power dynamic is so intense in regards to this, why realizing that the very vast majority of people do not have my best interest at heart has been weirdly liberating, and how reading Boy, Snow, Bird by Helen Oyeyemi has been a great book in this time of my life. </p> <p>if you haven't read <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boy,_Snow,_Bird" target="_blank">Boy, Snow, Bird</a> yet, I very much recommend it.

Episode 18: Your Real Issue with Nepotism (+ The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo)
<p>hello hello! if you're new here, hi! my name is genesis. and if you're not, hello old friend!</p> <p>today, i am talking about nepotism. it's a really passionate topic of discussion lately and I'm honestly befuddled as to why. regardless, it's a topic that i've been thinking about for a while now, especially since enduring some financial trauma. i think it's really easy to think of nepotism as bad and "self-made" as good or vice versa. i think it's really easy to think about this as a right or wrong issue, but it's a fully gray area. and i think it’s really easy to think about it as only beneficial when that’s not always the case. everyone's experience (or non-experience) with nepotism is different, but it's all ultimately about money. i think the shame around money leads to the lack of transparency around it and why it can, most of the time, be a really taboo topic. i'm throwing my hat into the analysis ring. this week, i'm also talking about nepotism through a book I just finished: The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid. I briefly state my review, but it also prompts some conversation about the topic of nepotism in regards to Hollywood and the entertainment industry (which seems to be at the center of the discourse). </p> <p>thank you for listening :) i'm happy you're here and i'm really grateful to be here too!</p> <p><a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/3WsJ9scsJkZhpJ3tBgZHTB" target="_blank">Spotify</a> | <a href="https://presentinggenesis.substack.com/" target="_blank">Substack</a> | <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/presenting-genesis/id1649102099" target="_blank">Apple Podcasts</a> | TuneIn | <a href="https://anchor.fm/presentinggenesis/support" target="_blank">Anchor</a></p> <p><br></p> <p>Links:<br> <a href="https://www.oregonlive.com/politics/2023/02/lawmaker-introduces-bill-to-ban-nepotism-in-the-oregon-legislature.html" target="_blank">Oregon Rep.

Episode 17: Sure, They're Cute...But Are They Kind?
<p>hello hellooo!!</p> <p>recently, i've been reflecting on hook-up culture and the future of monogamy. i feel like every fourth person is talking to me about someone they met on one of "the apps" whether that's Tinder, Grindr, Bumble, etc. And I think that there are some issues that we have to watch out for when body-based apps are how people are meeting people and putting themselves out there. Also! I think it's important we all remember that modern hook-up culture takes its roots in queer spaces, specifically the piers in New York City in the 70s and 80s. consent and safety are always topics to bring up when talking about sex whether we're having sex with our partner of 20 years in our bedroom or with a stranger in the bathroom of a club. can body centric apps be an avenue for sexual liberation? how is the prevalence of the "type" playing into all of this? i'm exploring all of this in this episode and i hope you enjoy. Safe Sex Is Hot Sex my friends!! </p> <p>if you have any thoughts of your own, i'd love to hear them! here's my email: presentinggenesis@gmail.com</p> <p>thank you for being here! i'm grateful to be here too :)</p> <p><a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/3WsJ9scsJkZhpJ3tBgZHTB" target="_blank">Spotify</a>, <a href="https://presentinggenesis.substack.com/" target="_blank">Substack</a>, <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/presenting-genesis/id1649102099" target="_blank">Apple Podcasts</a>, <a href="https://anchor.fm/presentinggenesis/support" target="_blank">Anchor</a>, TuneIn - all under Presenting...Genesis</p> <p><br></p> <p>Links: </p> <p><a href="https://archive.org/details/sisteroutsideres00lord/mode/1up" target="_blank">Audre Lorde's Sister Outsider</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.queerspacestudies.com/new-york-piers" target="_blank">The Queer Space Studies Initiative - New York Piers Archives</a></p> <p><a href="https://thefashionography.com/pride-2020/steven-meisel-aids-posters/" target="_blank">Safe Sex Is Hot Sex - photographs by Steven Meisel for Red Hot Organization</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.versobooks.com/books/2155-hold-everything-dear" target="_blank">John Berger's Hold Everything Dear: Dispatches on Survival and Resistance</a></p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p>
