a podcast about two reconnected friends navigating a world not made for them.

the hosts
Chase and Courn met in college as two “straight” women (👀 ) with a passion for design and didn’t think too much of it - while unbeknownst to each other, they were both struggling with their identities…a lot!
Over 3 years later they reconnected and bonded over their shared experiences of unpacking sexuality, neurodivergence, and mixed race identities. And in typical gen-z fashion, they made a podcast to talk about it.
Courn
they/them
Courn is a queer audhd Korean American designer and illustrator based in Portland, Oregon. Their life experience has largely shaped their philosophy and career, serving as an inspiration for their marginalized-centered design studio and many social media accounts. When they’re not sharing their life on the internet or deciding to paint their entire house, you’ll find them cuddled up with their two pups, Bean and Chappi.
Chase
she/her
Chase is a multi-racial lesbian with ADHD currently living in the northwest. With a passion for helping people, Chase spends her days working as a personal trainer and fitness manager at a local athletic club. On the weekends you can find her at a Thorns game, reading graphic novels, or juggling a myriad of unfinished household projects because, “how hard can that be?”
