Welcome to another episode of Mental Health Multiverse: A podcast where we mindfully break down your pop culture favs and discuss them through the lens of self care, mental health, and personal development.
On this very different episode of MHM, I (LB) try to recap the conversation HB & I had recorded about RAYA from Raya and the Last Dragon — but it was, alas, lost into the technological ether [insert several crying face emojis].
While this short recap barely scratches the surface of the amazing original conversation we had, I tried my best to remember the gems we discovered while discussing topics and themes including:
Trust
Chosen family
Greed
Unity / friendship / community
Grief
As well as why we love Raya and our favorite quotes, characters, and themes from the movie.
We also discussed Kelly Marie Tran being the voice actress for Raya and what it means for her to voice this character after being bullied off the internet: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/resurrection-of-kelly-marie-tran-on-surviving-star-wars-bullying-the-pressures-of-representation-and-raya-and-the-last-dragon-4142178/
