Description

What a death midwife-performance artist has to say about the habit of palatability. It miiiiight be killing you.

The cultural program of *making other people more comfortable over authenticity* gets parsed out as Melissa and Narinder yuck it up and talk about the role of the sacred clown in society, the shadow side of performing your very likable personality, and what it takes to get thyself free from the program of living small. Buckle up baby, there are tears, there are spicy rebukes, there are confessions! Let's go!

Thank you for listening, we love that you’re here.
