For Transgender awareness week, Minister La La sits down and has a very insightful, fun, and fabulous conversation with a transgender woman named Jessica and her fiance, Ross.
As Minister La La states during the introduction, due to the current climate of anti-transgender rhetoric, violence and politics we have decided to keep Jessica and Ross anonymous for this podcast. But as you listen you will hear two very real human beings navigating life, love, and family as fabulous as they can. From karaoke nights of love songs, dancing in the grocery stores, and celebrating Jessica day you will see the humanity as they break down the walls of fear and unknown surrounding the transgender experience.
We don't want to give it all away. But grab a drink, cozy up in a blanket, and listen as these two take you on a vulnerable, authentic, and fabulous journey!

Minister La La is feeling the fabulosity as he introduces his guest for this episode! Gino Ramos! Minister La La kikis with his good friend during this episode. They discuss how to maintain your fabulosity through tumultuous times. They talk about the "Let them" theory.

This is especially true if you belong to an underrepresented minority or group.

Minister La La sits down with Terrence Williams and they discuss his spiritual journey as a black queer man. They discuss the intersectionality of being queer, black, and man and how those identities individually and together shape his life, his spiritual experiences, and his fabulosity. This is a deep and truthful conversation highlighting a Black voice during Black History Month.

February is Black History Month. At The Church of Fabulosity part of our beliefs is that we strive for an equitable world because we believe that all humans are created equal: all sexes, all races, all genders, all sexual orientations, all ages, and all abilities! All means all!

So, during Black History Month we want to make sure, that as one of our guests so eloquently stated, bring Black History to the forefront of consciousness this month. With that we are lifting the voices of some of our Black community members to discuss their perspective, history, and their unique fabulosity and how as a Black human it shapes all of those aspects.

These are some inspiring, thought provoking conversations that I hope increases your perspective and understanding of the Black human experience. I hope these also inspire you to take some time this month to dig in and purposely learn something new. Learn Black History from Black voices from their perspective of their history throughout February and even throughout the year..

Terrence Williams is a person who truly values spiritual wellness and often looks to meditation, tarot, and other practices to remain grounded and self reflective. His hobbies include gaming, making art, and traveling this beautiful planet we call home to experience as much culture and life as possible. Professionally, Terrence makes a living as a design manager and creative storyteller currently based in Chicago, IL. He loves to concept and produce compelling and authentic brand narratives that force audiences to reconsider how they show up and give back to the world.
