This week, host Shayla Oulette Stonechild is joined by guest Monday Blues. Monday is a Two-Spirit Togolese-Secwépemc showgirl, model, decolonial life & business coach, and jewelry designer. Monday is a grad of the Erickson International Coaching Program, and has been a professional burlesque performer since 2011. She has traveled the globe as a solo female adventurer and loves to live outside her comfort zone. Monday strives to exist without limits and hopes to help those who have also experienced marginalization feel just as empowered. She is a member of Virago Nation, an all-Indigenous burlesque troupe on a mission to reclaim Indigenous sexuality from the toxic effects of colonization, and signed with Supernaturals Modelling, an Indigenous boutique modelling agency. In this episode, Monday discusses the importance of being rooted in authenticity, and the journey she has been on towards reclaiming her two identities. The two discuss the importance of being rooted in ancestral knowledge, the anti-racism work both Shayla and Monday have been doing, and her exciting new jewellery line that launches on June 30th. ...
