Descripción

When I spoke out against abuse from my first team, the silence I received wasn’t apathy—it was coordinated suppression. Behind-the-scenes reputation management ensures that those who threaten existing power structures get isolated before their narratives can gain traction. The “talented women at the forefront” don’t emerge organically; they’re selected based on their willingness to maintain the status quo. Meanwhile, actual disruptors like myself (neurodivergent/autistic BIPOC) get systematically erased from opportunities.

Weaponized Muay Thai: The First Cut is the Deepest

I'm stuck between my heart, a rock and a hard place because I know the power and the gift of the art itself. But I feel shame. really coming forward and like professing my fucking profound love for Muay Thai. Because I know that if I do lead people that are in my core fucking demographic in my core fucking audience, you know, late diagnose neurodivergence, women of color, autistic women, you know, bebok, individuals. 
Blacks and browns. If I do, go on this passionate tirade, which I am very passionate about, and I've been told countless times that. I have a particular gift for... 
And detailed, like immersion and research in Muay Thai itself. Um, It's hard. I can't do that in good faith and having a moral compass and integrity because if I do, I'm sending my people into gyms that do not have printed policies in place.
