Poz Vibe Podcast

Hello Poz Vibe Tribe!
Thank you so much for being here.
For this episode we’ve passed the mic to member of the tribe, Luis Noguera Benitez. Luis is an Irish Venezuelan actor, journalist and activist whose campaigning focus is on destroying HIV Stigma. In this episode, Luis talks to Muriel and Saynoara, two Brazilian women living in Ireland.
Muriel is a trans woman and artist who works with fashion and image making and incorporates them both on her gender transition journey. Sayonara is also a transgender woman and has lived in Ireland for the past 5 years. She has worked in the beauty industry for over 20 years and is dedicated to supporting and empowering the Brazilian transgender community in Ireland as a member of the Brazilian Commission. Sayonara shares her knowledge, life experience and professional expertise with newly arrived transgender women. She offers them guidance, encouragement, and practical support and is passionate about fostering inclusion, building confidence, and helping others create a sense of belonging in their new home.
Enjoy the episode!
Love,
Veda and Robbie.

Hello Poz Viberzzz!
This week we welcome Tailor Maid Colby to the Poz Vibe tribe. Hailing from Belfast, Tailor is a gymnast, a professional make-up artist and a reality television veteran. She is also one of Ireland’s leading drag divas and a misleading lady. On the homefront, Tailor is also very happily married to Robert and is mother to a pair of demanding but lovely dachshunds.
A classic overthinker and ex over achiever, Tailor lives her life trying to figure out how to use her platform for good whilst staying sane and surviving in this crazy world. Thriving with HIV since 2013, Tailor is finally ready to share more of her story with the POZ Vibe tribe. 
Enjoy the episode!
Love,
Veda and Robbie.
