What to Say Instead of “Womxn” and Why It Matters
Many well-meaning folks use terms like womxn or women+ in an effort to be inclusive—yet these alternatives often separate and other trans women rather than affirm their womanhood. In this piece, I unpack why I no longer use these terms, explore their histories, and offer a more integrated, justice-oriented approach to gender-inclusive language.
ADHD-Friendly Marketing: How to Build a Strategy Your Brain Can Actually Return To
ADHD-friendly marketing is not about forcing consistency. Learn how neurodivergent entrepreneurs can build sustainable marketing systems rooted in care, capacity, and repetition.
“Too Angry”: The Price of Speaking Truth as a Trans Person in a White Feminist Space
When I was fired for being “too angry,” it wasn’t because I was wrong—it was because I named harm. This piece unpacks what often happens when trans people speak up in white feminist spaces: tone gets policed, impact is ignored, and accountability is avoided. I wrote this as both a truth-telling and a teaching tool—for those of us who’ve been there, and for those ready to do better.
Debunking the Myth of Biological Sex
What if “biological sex” isn’t the neutral, scientific truth we’ve been taught? In this piece, I unpack the problems with the term, how it’s been weaponized against trans and intersex people, and why shifting to “sex assigned at birth” matters. Language shapes our realities—and it’s time we evolve ours. Plus, reflection questions and actions you can take to move from awareness to allyship.
Beyond the Buzzword: Why “Safe Spaces” Aren’t Always Safe
What does it really mean to create a “safe space”? And what might be more honest, more liberatory, and more aligned with trauma-informed practice? This article explores why “safety” isn’t a promise we can make—and how shifting toward safer spaces invites accountability, care, and collective responsibility.
Spiritual Work Shouldn’t Harm: On Gender, Power, and Sacred Practice
Teachings on divine feminine and masculine energies often aim to inspire healing—but can unintentionally uphold cisheteronormativity and binary gender norms. This piece invites teachers, coaches, and healers to reflect on how power, identity, and inclusion show up in their frameworks—and how we can expand our practices to support all bodies and identities.
LGBTQ+ Allyship for Yoga Teachers
Originally published with Yoga Journal, this article unpacks some of the ways we can engage in the practice of allyship, and how allyship directly ties into Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras through the teachings of the yamas and niyamas.
