So glad you’re addressing this topic, especially leading up to the holidays, which can be quite painful for people who live outside of societal expectations or norms.
I've been "invisible homeless" since I was 17. I got out at age 25, but got thrown back into it so quickly because my roommate decided to not move in after signing the lease. I couldn't understand WHY I couldn't just make enough to afford to live alone, why I couldn't keep a good job. I'm 35, unpacking the comphet that kept a roof over my head all these years, starting the divorce process. I just got a diagnosis of severe PTSD and Bipolar type 2. The PTSD started at age one, so I've been living in "survival" my entire life without knowing the WHY of it all.
I thought for a minute that y'all had lost the point in talking about the Amex lounge at the end. Then I let my second thought, which is how I truly feel, not how I've been programmed to feel, and I am sooooo happy for your glow up. From homelessness to joking about Amex lounges and Forbes. Congratulations to you and your continued success. Keep going!
Due to my single parent's mental health issues, I made safe choices that led to intermittent homelessness throughout high school and early adulthood (1980-86). My sexual partners, peers, and coworkers supported me with meals, a place to rest, and transportation until I could financially support myself through my work. It was a turbulent time, but my queer identity was never an obstacle. Very lucky!
Authenticity in our unique path to live, to speak, to work. Thank you for bringing the story of this beautiful soul to engage in the conversation for heart felt personal change has felt so powerful & encouraging a step by step process to create change to our life & the lives of others..
Thank you both for the vulnerability around both of your experiences with Planned Parenthood 🙏🏼 You’re so right that not a lot of the queer community shares their opinion on reproductive and women’s rights specifically.
As usual, the interview was great! Mathilde might already be aware of this, but once anyone becomes a U.S. citizen, they will be required to pay taxes in the United States, regardless of where they live. The American tax burden will be unavoidable unless they renounce their U.S. citizenship. Food for thought.

Was going to say this…I love this podcast and it’s such an important topic. I understand the need for ads to fund the show but 11 minutes in, two square space ads and one roll in ads from TH-cam…I’m tapping out of this episode because it feels so odd to interrupt a poignant story to be sold things.
@@anitaperes4434hi! thank you for the feedback- we totally hear you and understand. unfortunately, the placement is determined by our ad network and is a bit out of our control. we will keep bringing all of this feedback to them in hopes for change and a better way of doing things, in the meantime i hope you can understand that ads are the only way we can continue to produce free content.
“I don’t have a why… I have a who.” As a high school teacher, THIS is the only way to advocate for our youth. So much love for this young lady!!!

what an articulate, committed and engaged woman. I'm sure she's provided a lot of support to fellow women
