Jessie Santiago (she/her), artist, Reiki master, and owner of queer hair hotspot Salon Benders in Long Beach, joins us on the pod today to share her journey to a place of loving and honoring her truest self within her relationships - platonic and romantic! Jessie answers our hosts’ burning questions about polyamory, Shelley talks about the time she went to Outback Steakhouse with her mom to celebrate her entering puberty, and Bonnie reveals she is secretly Jessie’s therapist. Laughs abound in this episode, even as we touch on some tender topics. Jessie was a blast and we know you’ll love her like we do - for the kickass, intuitive, and openhearted human she is!

Salon Benders has become a safe haven for queer people of all ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds in Southern California. They do gender-affirming haircuts, silent cuts, they link their clients with community resources from which they might benefit - AND they have an incredible program called Give-A-Cut, where people can donate haircuts to those in the community who can’t afford to get them.
