*******************************************************************************************************************

In this pivotal episode of "Sh!t That Goes On In Our Heads," we dive deep with our guest Eva Strangelace, whose life exemplifies the courage to stand firm in one's identity despite external pressures and legislative challenges. Growing up with an emotionally distant father and without guidance on handling anger and frustration, Ripley's journey towards self-acceptance has been fraught with ups and downs. Today we explore the crucial role of therapy in embracing vulnerability, the powerful impact of music as a medium for self-expression, and the brave decision to remain a beacon of support in a challenging environment.

Firstly, Eva shares with G-Rex and Dirty Skittles the intricate dynamics of growing up in a divorced family and the long road to understanding and managing their emotions. The absence of a role model for self-management led to a transformative realization—the indispensable need for therapy, where learning about vulnerability and authenticity became GAME-CHANGING elements of Ripley’s life.

Navigating through a world where laws continually crossed personal boundaries, we discuss the conflict of fleeing versus fighting for change. Eva, originally planning an exit, chose to stay anchored in Orlando, providing a support system for the queer punk community that once uplifted them. The complexity of gender binaries, societal expectations, and the importance of representation and presence for those in need is a theme woven throughout our conversation.

Music has been a significant force for Ripley; from finding solace in the goth community to fronting bands that echoed their raw, unfiltered emotions, Ripley shows us that music can indeed be therapeutic. But beyond the harmonies, the episode delves into broader life choices, such as the influence of self-awareness on parenting, and the importance of safe spaces in an increasingly polarized society.

Join us as Eva recounts personal decisions shaped by culture, identity, and a relentless pursuit of self-truth. At our core, this episode is about resilience, truth, and the assertive declaration to live authentically, even when the world seems to push back.
