Meet Our Speakers:
Taryn Wahl (they/she) is a queer nerd with a background in biology who has been a sexual health educator at Planned Parenthood Regina for three years. They are continually learning about sexuality while trying to unlearn anything that promotes shame or stigma. Their goal is to have empowering conversations that help everyone feel more connected to themselves and their community.
Celeste Seiferling RSW (she/her) is a queer, cis-woman living on Treaty 4 territory. She is a trauma counsellor, a harm reduction advocate, and a feminist killjoy. She spends most of her days talking about sexuality and gender, relationships, substance use, and capitalist, colonial oppression. She uses humour, intuition, and gentle, fierce love to help folks reclaim their bodies, their relationships, and their identities. Her hope is that owning our power will help us all come together and overthrow harmful, hierarchical systems.
Mel Burdon (she/her) is a queer harm reduction advocate and educator with an obsession for questioning, dismantling, and recreating the ways we view and treat substance use and addiction. She is a strong advocate for understanding substance use outside of our rigid binaries and bringing conversations of social inequality, racism and privilege into discussions of substance use. She is currently working with AIDS Programs South Saskatchewan as the Education Coordinator for their Opioid Overdose Prevention Program.
