We interrupt your current pandemic programming to bring you a new episode of The Peak, which was recorded in the before-times, last December.
In this episode, Ursula talks about her work with the organization Girls with Grit, a non-profit working to prevent sex trafficking through education. She also discusses growing up in a small, gossipy community where the preacher’s infidelity was the talk of the town, surviving sexual abuse as a child, and how listening to female hip-hop artists like Missy Elliot and Salt-N-Pepa has helped her find confidence in herself and in her sexuality as a black woman.

In this bonus-length episode, our guest, Sarin recounts their experiences with sex in their personal and professional life. As a SHAC (School Health Advisory Council) Certified sex educator and political activist, Sarin works to teach people of all ages about sexual liberation, female masturbation, and sexual health, and as a former sex worker, they describe their experience with sex work as a means of sustenance, a source of confidence, and an important step on their path to personal self-discovery. They recall their relationship with their own sexuality, and how they have transformed since being emancipated as a teenager, to leaving their partner of 5 years and discovering their queer identity.
