Ep. 52: I Am a Brand New Fruity Thing That Has Never Been Before with James-Olivia Chu Hillman

Ink Medicine

Here we are. In Episode 52, on just about the one year anniversary of Ink Medicine Podcast, when I get the chance to interview one of my spiritual mentors about gender as fruit, spicy food and how it relates to being kinky, wearing strap-ons, being cerebral vs. being embodied, identity labels and various perspectives on them, being a beautiful bouquet, perceptions of beauty especially as we age, a bit on polyamory and a bit on sex work, and seriously.... did I think we would have a conversation this rich? I did actually.
But did I think it would be appropriate for the public platform that a podcast generally is? Well sure. But there were questions.
This episode is as honest as can be. James-Olivia answers all of my straight forward questions with absolute presence, thoughtfulness, depth and humor.
And this is only Part I.
