Tavi and our guest--drag artist, actor, and healing witch rexy lafemme--speak about rexy's personal practices, dive deep into the "Upside Down" systemic toxicity of modern Theatre and Film industries, what the SAG and WAG strikes signify astrologically, old and outdated practices of tokenism, transphobia and exceptionalism towards trans and other marginalized people in the entertainment industry, the spiritual experience of acting, and how we will need to collectively work together to break down old oppressive systems and build something new, weaving hope through devastating times.
