  • Queerness is a Superpower with Taryn Talley - pink slingshot: the podcast - ep03
    Oct 24 2023

    Are you a Professor X or a Magneto when it comes to queerness? Or perhaps you identify more Asgardian than mutant?

    Well, that's some of what exene discussed with marketing leader Taryn Talley on this episode of pink slingshot: the podcast.

    They also hit on:

    • the limits of LinkedIn when it comes to queer-relevant content,
    • what it is that gives us an edge in our job search or leadership,
    • the importance of finding and connecting with "our kind",
    • and a lot more.
