This week on Unmuted: Speak the Truth They Trained You to Hide, I talk with Dianne Casey—a poet, performer, and all-round powerhouse—about what it really takes to reclaim your voice when the world has taught you to stay quiet.We dive into the magic of spoken word, the strength of building community, and the courage it takes to speak before you're ready. Dianne doesn’t just talk about transformation—she embodies it. She shares pieces about silence and voice including a piece from her upcoming debut collection, The Ritual of Not Disappearing.This episode is about taking up space, honouring your own voice, and speaking not just for yourself, but for everyone who’s still trying to find theirs. of Dianne's poetry on Substack https://diannecasey1.substack.com
