Summary
This week Kat (@kat.defatta) is FREAKING PUMPED to have her friend Max Barry (@maxtbarry) on the show to talk about some things that have been ON HER MIND the past couple of weeks. Kat started reading the book, Man Enough, by Justin Baldoni and has had a couple revelations about the normative culture we are surrounded by. In this episode, Kat sits down and has a very real and raw conversation about how societal norms encourage some individuals to not choose themselves. Max walks us through his story of self discovery when it comes to his sexuality, shares with us a very important perspective on what it feels like to try to fit in as a "man" in our culture today, and discusses what he believes needs to change in order to allow more humans to find full freedom to be who they are. And TBH the timing is impeccable because... HAPPY PRIDE MONTH.
Kat also shares about a charity event that is happening in Nashville on June, 20, 2021: Songs to End ALZ: an evening benefiting The Longest Day & the Alzheimer’s Assocation
