    In this new episode with Dubai-based photographer Hady Afif, we discuss the art industry, social media, and the significance of culture within an artist's work. Is it our duty to portray our heritage? Why is everyone suddenly so aloof and famous? What makes you a "real artist"? Do we have to portray a facade in real life for people to take us seriously? Who is the creative behind the art, and can they be loved? Unconditionally?

    In this cathartic episode with queer recording and visual artist Kye Akoun, we discuss trauma, the importance of space and the consequences of artistic segregation. Are we more motivated when we are alone on our journey? Does our physical environment, country, city matter when it comes to being an artist? How can we cultivate the best environment for being in a creative flow? Do we really need to belong to a creative scene to validate our artistic integrity?

    In this very personal episode I explore the paradigm of shapeshifting, and talk about vulnerability through queer identity. Why are we so inclined to have identity crises as queers? Is it possible to have identity dysphoria in adulthood? What causes queer identity shame? What is a good queer reference point? How to accept the beauty and multi-faceted nature of identity? Are we lost? Or just multi-faceted?
