Daisy (she/they) is a queer person who isn't a big fan of labels as she feels her identity is fairly transient.
In this episode, you'll hear Daisy speak about her experiences growing up on the Bellarine, how she has found and built her community around her in Geelong and some of the hopes she has for the future.
There are no significant trigger warnings for this episode, but if you find anything distressing then please seek support from a loved one or one of the helplines listed at the bottom of this description.
This podcast is released every Tuesday and Friday and could not have been possible without the support of our local community partners, Midsumma and the Fairer Victoria portfolio of the Victorian State Government.
