A lot of what you just described justice was emotional safety and well-being, and I don't want to pass what was just shared by Chantel about the physical, the threat. I don't care if it hurts me, but tell me the truth, so at least I can know what's going on, at least I can consent to whatever is happening or say that, no, I don't want to part in this right. But I need you to work on that shit before you come into my life.
How do you navigate love and connection when you're a BIPOC queer in recovery? In this episode of 'What the Queer?', co-hosts Jamie Osorio and Shauntelle Hammonds are joined by their Tea Time show co-host, Justice Smith, for an unfiltered discussion on relationships, situationships, and dating while on the path to sobriety.
They dive into the unique hurdles faced by BIPOC queers, tackling topics like the stigma of addiction, the challenges of traditional monogamy, and the often exclusionary nature of white-centered recovery spaces. Through personal stories and candid reflections, they explore how communication, honesty, and consent play crucial roles in building healthy relationships. Justice Smith opens up about his journey of healing and self-discovery, while Jamie and Shauntelle share their own experiences and insights.
This episode isn't just about relationships; it's a heartfelt conversation that encourages listeners to rethink societal norms and find their own paths to love and connection. Whether you're in recovery or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a refreshing perspective on navigating intimate connections in a world that often feels stacked against you.
