    Aug 15 2024
    Lauren Martin is a psychotherapist, poet, and a devoted Iyanifa practictioner. She lives in Oakland, California. Lauren studied poetry at Sarah Lawrence College. She spent years writing without submitting her work due to a long shamanic journey, which led her to both Ifá, and to writing "Night of the Hawk: Poems." Summary: In this episode, Dr. Michael Anthony Ingram interviews Lauren Martin, a psychotherapist, Iyanifa practitioner, and poet. Lauren discusses her debut poetry collection, "Night of the Hawk: Poems," inspired by her shamanic journey. The collection explores the experiences of marginalized and disabled individuals, highlighting the intersection of poetry, psychotherapy, and shamanism. Lauren shares her unique ability to dream poems, which she believes are messages from the other side. She reads emotionally charged poems inspired by real-life events, such as the Nigerian Chibok girls' kidnapping and her own experiences with sickness and spirituality. The episode delves into Lauren's personal journey, the concept of destiny in Ifa tradition, her perspectives on empathy, and her inspirations from both literary and musical realms.

    Jules Stevenson: QLPORYT Interview and Poetry Reading - Audio Version
    Jul 30 2024
    Jules Stevenson is a 21-year-old poet, artist, and social media influencer from Selkirk, Manitoba. She began writing in her early teens as a means of coping with anxiety, depression, anorexia, sexual trauma, abuse, and suicide. Over the years, her writing has evolved into an incredibly intimate and honest body of work. At 16, Jules self-published her first book, ‘atrophy,’ a collection centered around anorexia. Her work frequently explores themes of trauma, the body, feminism, and mental health. In 2023, her poem 'An Apology to My Cat' went viral on TikTok, gaining over 12.6 million views. This global reaction led to the self-publication of her poetry memoir, ‘self portraits of a girl collapsing violently inward,’ which focuses on sexual and digital trauma during the COVID-19 pandemic. Jules has garnered several accolades in the poetry community, including winning first place at Slamdemic, third place with her team at Poetry in Voice, and securing second place multiple times at Poetry Battles. In 2024, she represented her province at the Canadian Individual Poetry Slam, showcasing her talent on a national stage. She was also selected by the Manitoba Council for International Cooperation to co-author and perform a poem on gender equality at the legislature for International Development Week. Currently, Jules spends her time working as a barista, writing, and enjoying the company of her beloved cats, Moth and Lamp.
