Über diesen Titel

 Welcome to The Scarlet Frequency — the sonic pulse of The Red Tent Collective. Here, we speak in spells and syllables, through poems that breathe and essays that burn. Each episode is a reclamation: voiced articles that vibrate with truth, recordings from live conversations on X Spaces, and dialogues with thinkers who refuse the silence. This is not another algorithm-fed podcast. It’s a listening ritual. A gathering for women who crave depth over dopamine, and who know that liberation begins with language — raw, embodied, and unfiltered.The Red Tent Collective Sozialwissenschaften

  • Refusing Limits: The Day The Chadors Flew with Coach Linda Blade

    Refusing Limits: The Day The Chadors Flew with Coach Linda Blade
    May 14 2026
    This episode of Red Tent Storytellers begins high in the mountains of Bolivia and stretches across Olympic stadiums, Islamic republics, hidden women’s spaces, and the growing global battle over truth itself.Hosted by Peeja and Hazel Moon Audio, this conversation with Coach Linda Blade is not simply about sport. It is about what happens when a woman spends an entire lifetime refusing to shrink herself to fit the expectations around her.Linda Blade was born in Bolivia to Canadian missionary parents translating the Bible into Quechua. Long before she became an internationally recognized advocate for women’s sports, she was a fiercely athletic little girl sprinting through mountain roads, training in secret corners of South America, and becoming a national champion before most teenagers know who they are.What follows is extraordinary.Linda recounts training under a world-class German coach in Bolivia before earning NCAA recruitment offers, competing internationally for Canada, and witnessing firsthand the corruption and doping scandals that defined elite athletics in the 1980s. But the episode reaches another level when she describes the moment World Athletics sent her into post-revolution Iran as the first Western woman invited to teach women how to coach girls in sport.What she found there changed her permanently.Women hidden beneath black chadors suddenly exploding into color inside female-only athletic spaces. Former champions showing her photo albums with parts of their bodies ripped from the images by family members. Quiet confessions about freedom, fear, ambition, and survival. Linda describes the experience not as abstract politics, but as a visceral warning about how quickly women’s rights can disappear when ideology overtakes reality.What makes this conversation unforgettable is Linda herself.She speaks with the intensity of someone who has lived many lives already, but also with deep optimism about human potential. For Linda, sport was never simply competition. It was proof that excellence exists, that truth matters, and that women deserve spaces where they can fully become who they are without apology.This episode is not merely a life story.It is a warning.And it is a defense of freedom from someone who has watched entire societies lose it in real time.Linda is a former Canadian national heptathlon champion, international athletics coach, researcher, and advocate for women’s sports. Her career has taken her from Bolivia to Nigeria, Iran, Kenya, Europe, India, and beyond through decades of coaching, teaching, and international athletics development work.She has coached Olympic-level athletes, worked with World Athletics development programs, and became one of the leading public voices defending sex-based categories in sport. She is also co-author of Unsporting, a landmark book examining gender ideology and fairness in women’s athletics.Her work combines elite athletic expertise with firsthand global experience witnessing how ideology, culture, and politics shape the lives of women across radically different societies.Follow Dr. Blade on XUnsporting: How Trans Activism and Science Denial are Destroying SportSports Illustrated, '97 | Teach coaching, see the world traveling to third world countries to train coaches is Linda blade's idea of a perfect summer vacationLooking for a way to support Canadian TERVEN?

  • When a Mother Is Erased: Alexandra Lyashchenko's a.k.a. Ellie's Story

    When a Mother Is Erased: Alexandra Lyashchenko's a.k.a. Ellie's Story
    Apr 23 2026
    Imagine leaving a war-torn country for freedom in the West. Then imagine having your child taken from you by CPS and gender ideology. You can stop imagining; this is happening.This episode of Red Tent Storytellers holds a story that does not resolve cleanly. It exposes something far more difficult: what it means to fight when the system itself becomes the force you are fighting against.Ours hosts, Peeja and Hazel Moon Audio, bring forward Alexandra Lyashchenko, a mother whose life has been shaped by displacement, survival, and a relentless commitment to her children.Alexandra's story begins long before the present crisis. Born into the final years of the Soviet system, evacuated from Chernobyl as a child, and later immigrating to the United States in pursuit of stability, she built a life on the belief that systems could be trusted if you worked within them. That belief did not survive what came next.What unfolds is not a single event, but a pattern.Her daughter, described as bright, expressive, and sensitive, becomes the focus of escalating concern within school systems that respond not with support, but with labeling, isolation, and pressure. Over time, behavioral struggles are reframed, diagnoses accumulate, and authority shifts away from the family. What begins as confusion turns into confrontation.The breaking point arrives when Child Protective Services intervenes.Alexandra recounts the moment her daughter is removed from her home. Not as a dramatic rupture, but as something procedural, controlled, and irreversible. From that point forward, the story becomes a fight for visibility. Courtrooms where she cannot speak. Decisions made without her presence. Allegations that persist even after being dismissed. And a child placed into environments Ellie cannot meaningfully influence or protect.What makes this episode difficult to ignore is not only the scale of the loss, but the clarity with which Alexandra describes it. There is no abstraction here. Only a mother tracing the sequence of decisions that separated her from her child, step by step.At the same time, the conversation does not stay in collapse.She speaks about survival in precise terms. The daily reality of continuing to parent her son while carrying unresolved grief. The way trauma reshapes ordinary life. And the unexpected role of art, specifically neurographic drawing, as a tool for holding herself together when language fails.This is not a story about resolution.It is a record of endurance.And a reminder that behind every institutional decision, there are lives that do not return to what they were.If this conversation moved something in you, don’t leave it here.Follow Alexandra's work, read her writing, and share this episode.Subscribe to Alexandra on Substack to follow this horrifying ordeal in real-time.Alexandra on XRead more about this horrifying story as reported by ReduxxAnd if you believe women’s voices matter when the stakes are highest, join The Red Tent Collective.Follow TRTC on SocialsThis is where stories like this are not buriedMore coverage of this story:California Family Loses Custody Of Daughter After Refusing To Medically “Affirm” Her Transgender Identity | ReduxxChild Services Stole My Child and Transitioned Her! | Ellie | Beyond GenderCalifornia Mom Speaks Out After School Gender Identity Conflict | Guest Host Sonja ShawChild stolen by the California government, Ukrainian honey badger mom | BeGreaterA Mother’s Fight for Her Child: "School Mafias," Care Failures, and Gender Affirmation | Critical therapy Antidote

  • When Art Becomes What Keeps You Alive with Skylar Gwynn

    When Art Becomes What Keeps You Alive with Skylar Gwynn
    Apr 16 2026

    Skylar did not find art as a hobby.

    She found it as a lifeline.

    Content Note: This episode includes strong language and discusses mental health, trauma, and survival. Listener discretion is advised.

    In this episode of Red Tent Storyteller, Peeja and Hazel Moon Audio sit with Skylar Gwynn as she traces the moment everything shifted. Deep depression. Not functioning. A life narrowing fast. And then, almost by accident, a set of oil paints.

    What follows is not a clean artistic journey. It is survival, translated into creation. From learning to paint from nothing, to rejecting rigid instruction, to studying under a mentor who taught her to see what is actually there, not what the mind assumes. Her work grows from realism into something deeper. Not just representation, but presence.

    Skylar speaks openly about what art became for her. A way to step outside her own mind. A way to stay. At one point, she is clear about the stakes. It was paint, or it was not making it through.

    The conversation moves through scale and process. Massive canvases. Layered color. Painting until something real emerges. But underneath all of it is something else. A relationship between art and something larger. Call it spirit. Call it energy. Call it God. For Skylar, creation is not solitary. It is collaborative. A channel, not just an act.

    There is also a cost.

    Portrait work becomes too heavy when it is tied to grief. Empathy turns creation into something painful. And so she shifts. Adjusts. Finds another way to keep creating without losing herself in it.

    This episode is not about becoming an artist.

    It is about what happens when something saves your life.

    And what you build from there.
