episode 5 - anna p.

this episode features anna parkinson, a 22 year old student with crohn’s disease. crohn’s is a form of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) which is an autoimmune disorder in which the immune system attacks the digestive system. this disorder can cause anything from mouth ulcers and sore throats to extreme abdominal pain or vomiting and diahrroea. it has no known cure and usually requires heavy medication or even surgery to keep under control. some of you may know that i also suffer from this disease, so this episode definitely ended up being more of a chat than an interview; we cover the lesser known aspects of having an illness like this, and discuss to what extent we consider ourselves disabled by it. for more info on crohn's or IBD in general, click some of the links below. thanks for listening and enjoy the show!  . if you suffer from anything similar and just want to rant, please reach out. anna and i both understand how completely isolating illnesses like these can be, so my dm's are always open and my website has an anonymous messaging service. alternatively, you could consider joining the online support group on facebook under https://www.facebook.com/groups/1546262139020108/. don't suffer alone.  . learn more: crohns and colitis UK: https://www.crohnsandcolitis.org.uk/ [https://www.crohnsandcolitis.org.uk/] visit the 'grumbling gut' on youtube: https://youtube.com/c/TheGrumblingGut [https://youtube.com/c/TheGrumblingGut] read the blogpost: https://theotherboxpodcast.editorx.io/lizzygur/blog get the transcript: https://theotherboxpodcast.editorx.io/lizzygur/blank-3 . got something to say? get in touch with me.  email: theotherboxpodcast@gmail.com    instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theotherboxzine/ .   ©Lizzy Gür 2021

episode 4 - anna d-s.

this episode features composer, performer and educator anna disley-simpson, whose music defies genre and challenges what 'contemporary classical' actually means. our discussion covers why and how she makes music, who she makes it for, and whether any of that even matters. go and listen to some of her music (my favourites are L YOU V and Mother Moon - both stunning) linked down below and read my blogpost to find out more about why i as a composer myself found this discussion really fascinating. thank you for listening!  . anna's portfolio: https://www.annadisleysimpson.com/ read the blogpost:  get the transcript:  . got something to say? get in touch with me. email: theotherboxpodcast@gmail.com  instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theotherboxzine/ . ©Lizzy Gür 2021

episode 3 - amal.

this episode features amal, who talks about how stereotypes about her faith and gender affect her as a young, politically active hijabi muslim. she asked me to link a few resources that have inspired and educated her - definitely check those out if you get the chance. the blogpost to this episode goes into what i would have done differently next time, and why keeping up with a new episode every week is so challenging. enjoy the show!    . visit the lawyher on ig: https://www.instagram.com/thelawyher/ [https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbjI0bXlrWEdFQThBX1lpYlc3aktxbFM5VlZRQXxBQ3Jtc0tueEZoYzJOeUFfUFB3NW0xMTMtVDQtamp5UzZzYk9KN2NOS2diVXFxLXh5OXd3cTRGZXYzeDJ2MmFnZUVkQnRmYTI4cW5WZmVGMHhGWnoydHA5dmUzOWx3MEQyNlRhSWhlNnZMR09MUmYyakdRbFE0RQ&q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.instagram.com%2Fthelawyher%2F] listen to suhaiymah manzoor-khan's poetry: https://youtu.be/G9Sz2BQdMF8 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9Sz2BQdMF8&t=0s] read the blogpost: https://theotherboxpodcast.editorx.io...
