Representation and intersectionality with Paige Krystal Wilcox
Listen now
Description
Our guest this week is Paige Krystal Wilcox. Paige is an award-winning activist and author, and she uses the Intentional Storytelling method to create compelling stories that counter unhealthy or unhelpful bias, tropes, and stereotypes in mainstream media. Paige is a neurodivergent woman who was assigned male at birth, and she does not use the labels trans or transgender.   In this episode we discuss the power of stories as a communication tool and the importance of representation in media. Paige shares with us her method for creating complex and diverse characters. We unpack ‘intersectionality’ and what this has meant for Paige throughout her life, and the personal strengths and challenges that have come from her neurodivergences and life experiences. Finally, Paige shares some of the accommodations she has in the workplace and she extols the benefits of spreadsheets and walking!  Paige’s books: My Life Most Memoirable  Before We Pulled The Trigger    Paige’s podcasts: Listen More with Page Krystal Wilcox  Paisal: A True RomCom Contact us at [email protected], or visit our website: www.ndwomanpod.com Michelle's website: www.michellelivock.com Monique's website: www.moniquemitchelson.com.au   We are on Patreon!
