Coming off Father's Day celebrations, not to mention the ongoing celebration of Pride Month, let's take the opportunity to spotlight some perspectives specifically male.

Inclusiveness is a priority here at Styleposium, and we sincerely hope you're feeling that vibe.  If not, feel free to bend our ear!

Whether, you're a father to children, or just to the sweet, productive, fruit of your imagination, we hope you had an excellent day celebrating the fathers in your life and the father within.
To Watch:
It's not a warm and fuzzy Father's Day story, but it's an important one to share.  This 15 minute TEDXtalk from Arturo Castaneda will have you re-thinking your limits and what you can accomplish,

"If you're being labeled at risk, if you're being labeled a bastard.  Any labels you are being labeled, I'll tell you what:  you can go from being labeled, to creating your own."
- Arturo Castaneda, Cielo Brands.
​

To Listen:  

Sewing is often seen as women's work, but there are plenty of great reasons to pick it up regardless of gender.

Seamwork Radio had a great conversation with Matthew Holloway ranging from personal experiences of growing up gay in rural OK to larger ideas like our cultural hunger for the handmade.  I think of this interview often and I hope you find it's content edifying and sustaining


"It isn't lesser work.  It's fascinating, detailed, creative work. It's construction.  Just a different type."
- Matthew Holloway
