Olivia is joined by 3 creatives who all identify within LGBTQ+: Jenni Smith, Kara Varetto and Mathea Lace and they have come on to share their experiences of growing up within LGBTQ+ on the Isle of Man. All 3 of my guests have been on challenging but empowering journeys that has brought them to where they are today and each story demonstrates an honest representation of where the Island has been both progressive and unaccepting when it comes to supporting LGBTQ+. This is a really special 2 part episode, where part 2 will be released later this month to address further how creativity can help a person explore their identity and can be used as a medium to reach out to and help others in need.
