Authenticity Through Community
Back in 2022, Randall Nielsen and Ashley Johnson were looking for community. As Queer artists in New Hampshire, they each felt a distinct lack of supportive, artistic space in which they could be their full selves. When they were connected at a Pride Festival organizing event, a creative spark was lit, and Queerlective (https://queerlective.com/) was born.
Queerlective has emerged as a unique organization in the New Hampshire landscape, offering a wide range of workshops, exhibitions, and community events. They seek a more inclusive world for Queer, BIPOC and other marginalized communities through art, offering not only artistic support, but community care and social advocay as well.
Today I’m joined by Executive Director Randall Nielsen, and Director of Marketing Ashley Johnson. In this episode, you’ll learn about Randall and Ashley’s personal journeys to authenticity, and glimpse into the empowering world of creating art in community.

You Are Unstoppable with Victoria Carrington Chavez
What does it take to move outside of the boundaries that keep us boxed in — or boxed out? In part, it means letting go of perfectionism, and allowing yourself to be seen. But what do we do when the stuctures around us don’t allow us to do that? Or only let us get so far?
Today I’m joined by Victoria Carrington Chavez, entrepreneur, storyteller, and visual artist. She is also the creative director and co-founder of Aspen and Lilac, and La Mezcla Creative Collective. She shares her own story of growth, acceptance, and drive, all through a lens of decolonial thought and creativity.

On Grieving and Looking Ahead
Published 18 Dec 2024 · Transcript excerpt
[…] I was just so, so affected in that moment and just so touched because I think those animals knew that I needed a little bit of love and care in that moment. And so I walked away, just crying and crying all the way back to my house. And there's a lot of different reasons for why I'm feeling grief. […]
