DetoxPod 141 : Micah R (Creator/Mental Health Advocate)
Manage episode 362904632 series 2635770
I say this all the time, I know: this is a good one!
Micah R is the host and creator of a YouTube series called Realistically Free.
He and I initially connected for an episode of his podcast, and we talked for two hours and change. Then the internet ate it. I hate the internet sometimes.
We then talked for almost two hours for Detox. Thankfully a) the internet didn't eat it this time and b) I was able to edit our conversation down to about 80 super interesting minutes.
One thing that never occurred to me before is the perspective that many of our transmasculine friends have, similar in a lot of ways that racial minorities or gay people have-where your ability to be empathic can be magnified due to being socialized in a way that runs counter to who you are. I mean, we live in a very white, heteronormative, cisgender, male-dominated society, right? Anyone that runs counter to that has the benefit (and the curse, because this shit ain't easy) of essentially living two (or more) life experiences simultaneously.
Anyway, Micah and I talk about everything from his bout with homelessness to losing his father at a young age to shopping for a penis. I hope you enjoy this conversation--hit me up and let me know what you think!
