Imagination Revolution: U.B.I.

This is part 2 of my conversation with Elise Ian Fields, where we get in even further to issues with corporate over reach & governance failures in attempting to operate social services as for profit businesses. We talk about bold visioning, allyship, ableism, autonomy, ageism and accessible neighborhoods. If you missed part one of our conversation, check out episode 3.  Some things that come up in this episode:  https://www.tiktok.com/@drkimberlydouglass/video/7193021477128588587?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc&web_id=7069233286707791365 https://www.tiktok.com/@oddpride/video/7053979569451289902

This is part one of a long juicy conversation I had with Elise Ian Fields as a part of this exploration of what our lives could look like with our basics covered. We talk about capitalism failing at providing services, profiting on collapse, mutual aid, and middle age history podcasts.  Come back for part 2 of this conversation, in episode 4. 

A conversation with brow tamer and pleasure seeker Reia Lance exploring how pleasure, connection and balance can grow in the spaciousness of a supported life. Our conversation makes the full circle from day sex to informed consent for shadow play,  stopping along the way to talk about sleep timing, personal agency,  orienting the body and nervous system to pleasure, calling in sick,  dreamy victorian mansions with dungeons in the basement and being in  relationships with systems in balance.

Somatic Sex Educator and Sexological Body worker Jess DeVries of Portland, Oregon joins me to discuss slowing down, learning to feel, making up for gaps in shitty sex ed, and how all that ties into imagining our way out of a system that exploits us and deprives us agency.  In the original recording, all Kori's audio was too compromised to use, so they combed through it, transcribed what they could and re-recorded their side of the conversation. While it may at points seem like there is less laughs and agreement passed between us than would be expected, that's why.  You can find Jess online at https://www.patreon.com/BelovedCoaching/ , https://www.belovedcoaching.net/ or on IG @BelovedCoaching This is the first episode I have recorded and am releasing since I took a year long hiatus to devote my attention to my partner Coco through cancer treatment. That process continues but I am back to recording this show and booking guests to come on and share with me and my listeners what they would do if/when all their basics are guarenteed.

Hope Warren is a 41 year old disabled trans woman. She is currently taking some time outside the conventional workforce as she recovers from injuries incurred as a blue collar & trades worker. We talk about how hard it can be to even entertain questions like, "What would you do if money wasn't an issue?" and get into a bunch of fun side tangents like how gender and value are socialized, how capitalists are sucking at capitalism, and the process of unlearning grind culture to enable healing.  Support this show and my other projects by becoming a backer on patreon.com/koridoty and follow all my work at koridoty.com

This is the seed. A show will grow from it, but first it is taking some time, sitting in the moist, dark; ruminating, building up potential. From this seed great things will grow- keep an eye out.
