We can think of no better way to launch a podcast than with our first two guests: Mae Martin and Bob the Drag Queen. Mae (Handsome podcast, debut album “I’m a TV,” and upcoming Netflix series “Wayward”) shares their secret crush gone horribly wrong, and perhaps the most incorrect way to use a spatula. Bob (RuPaul’s Drag Race winner, The Traitors, NYT best seller “Harriet Tubman: Live in Concert: A Novel”) reveals their ultimate kindergarten nightmare and the least comfortable way to extinguish a roast.

This week, Jameela is joined by author & illustrator Florence Given (Women Living Deliciously) to talk finding joy in your life, being a playful activist, and opening your own doors of self-expression. Florence shares ways to let go of other people’s perceptions of you, and how to intentionally take up (too much) space by showing up courageously and being unapologetically yourself. This is a joyful conversation on the art of being childlike, not childish, and focuses on romancing yourself while finding awe in the everyday. You can find Florence on IG @florencegiven and TT @florencegiven and her new book 'Women Living Deliciously' is out now.
