🎙️ Drag, Disruption & Dangerous Laws: Trans Joy in a Bathroom Ban State 🏳️‍⚧️🔥

Guest: Tacoma / Rachel Lee Motivated

What happens when your drag becomes your protest? When joy is defiance—and survival? And what does it feel like to live, perform, and pee in a state like Idaho under escalating anti-trans laws?

This week on Trans Joy Boise, hosts Bonnie Violet (trans femme, genderqueer, spiritual drag artist & digital chaplain) and Pacey (transmasc, non-binary, mental health & recovery advocate) are joined by the radiant and rebellious Tacoma (aka drag star Rachel Lee Motivated) for a conversation about:

💄 Drag as a tool for protest and community building
📣 The power—and risk—of pushing the envelope on stage
🚻 Living through Idaho’s newest bathroom ban law
🧠 Coping with fear, safety, and survival in hostile states
🏳️‍🌈 Turning performance into purpose—and joy into resistance

This episode is a raw and heartfelt look at how queer artists are navigating joy, fear, and visibility in dangerous times—and how every stage can become a soapbox.

🧼 Because in Idaho, simply being seen can be revolutionary.
