Culture Talks with Amee Bee

Amee means unconditional love in Sanskrit. Amee Bee is an artist and poet, born in America of Indian descent, inspired by love. She has bright blue eyes and slender artistic hands, which are rare features for Indian culture. She never painted in her life, until a sweet friend looked at her hands and told her to pursue art and poetry.

Without professional lessons in art (or poetry), she began to paint one cold January morning in 2017. Art, travel and new experiences for Amee Bee are the best outlets for self discovery, self acceptance and for her to stay in an inspired state of being. By sharing her experiences, she hopes it inspires you to be in love or do art, too.

Amee Bee adores the quirkiness of Mark Jacobs personality, wit and charm of the late Kate Spade, passion of Vincent Van Gogh- just as much as the chill vibes of Buddha and love poems by Rumi. Amee aims to find beauty in what's around her and be appreciative of what she has.

It's her secret to happiness. Art, poetry and stories are what translate from it. By sharing, she hopes you to experience the love and magic within you. Thank you for reading.

Culture Talks with Ingrid Dyer

Ingrid recently moved back to her hometown of Olathe, KS after living in Miami, FL for the last 6.5 years. Due to the pandemic, she was laid-off where she was working as a furniture buyer. She decided it was best to move back to her hometown of Kansas City due to so much uncertainty. Ingrid is 1st generation Mexican American, she was raised in a single parent household where she grew up with an absent father, sexual abuse and at times displaced without a home.

Growing up in the mid-west she experienced colourism within her race and outside of her race due to being a light skinned Latina. Though experiencing adversity in her up bringing Ingrid had the opportunity to attend an art school in Chicago where she pursued her passion and received a degree which allowed her to work for many well-known retailers & brands such as Mango clothing, New Era Cap and ACE Hardware.

When Ingrid is not working the typical 8 to 5 office job she volunteers her time at home taking in foster dogs with the Chain of Hope animal rescue organization. She is also navigating through a health & fitness journey where she is learning to heal from within. Now almost a full year since Ingrid located back to her hometown she literally finds herself in a radical 360 degree “full circle moment” grateful at a second chance to reset her life and find her balance.

Nisha Jalmi, MS (she/her) currently resides in Oakland, California and works as a Vocational Rehab Counselor. Nisha is an intercountry, transracial adoptee from Goa, India. In 2009, she embarked on an international search to reunite with her birth mother. A few years later, her journey back home was featured in the documentary, YOU FOLLOW: a search for one's past .

After the nationwide tour of YOU FOLLOW, Nisha became a public speaker, group facilitator, adoptee advocate, and published writer for PACT: An Adoption Alliance. She continues to share her personal evolution and work by other adoptees at TheAdopteediary.com.

Nisha later realized how her experience of family separation intersected with animal rights, which has led her to live a Plant-based/Vegan lifestyle to combat not only animal cruelty, but also, racism, the current climate crisis and food injustices. Nisha’s passion for adventures and education sparked her commitment to invest in traveling the world with dear friends or alone on the open road. With the current travel restrictions, she has made time to listen and heal without distractions. Nisha values The Universe, herSELF, Mother Nature, personal growth, and new experiences.
