Description

<p>It’s been a tough week - join Jack Guinness in conversation with Paris Lees as we discuss healing from trauma, resilience and living from a place of joy.</p><br><p>Paris is an author, writer and broadcaster. She has been described as “the voice of a generation” by i-D magazine, “the fierce and fearless voice we need” by Dazed and one of Britain’s seven “new Suffragettes” by British Vogue. Though it sounds like hyperbole, her career has been truly ground-breaking. As well as being a contributing editor at British Vogue, she has written everywhere from the Guardian to the Telegraph, and she is both Channel 4 and Radio 1’s first Transgender presenter.</p><br><p>Her debut book, What It Feels Like for a Girl, a memoir based on her life aged 13 to 18, was published by Penguin Books in 2021 and has been commissioned as an eight-part series for BBC Three and BBC iPlayer out in 2025, adapted by Paris.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Queerphoria is a Gay Star News production for JOE Media Group.&nbsp;</p><br><p><br></p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
