Meet Kate Turnipseed - a podcast by Ana

Meet Kate Turnipseed. She is the cohost of the Lady Wave podcast, an Alabaman and the person who makes your favorite TV shows run smoothly. In this episode, we talk about growing up feminist, period health and homelessness in LA. 

Homelessness is a topic that has come up in the past two episodes. LA does have resources. If there are homeless living near you, you can fill out this super easy form (https://www.lahsa.org/portal/apps/la-hop/request)  with the Los Angeles Homeless Authority. LAHA will go check the situation out, help your homeless neighbors get in touch with resources and find safer places to live. Don't call the cops on the homeless unless you are in immediate and real physical danger, because you will potentially put that person into harm's way or make the mountain that this person is already climbing even larger.

About The Show: LA is a city of 4 million spread over 503 miles, 114 neighborhoods and can take over an hour to get from one side to the other. With that many people bumping up against each other, how is it possible to feel alone and isolated. It's a city of paradox: dreams and heartbreak. Lifelong locals and those just coming in for a shot. Each week, I sit down with a Los Angeles resident to connect. Talk about our lives and what got us to where we are today. Talking. What does it mean for two people to get to know each other? It's also a show about connection in the larger sense, because each guest introduces me to the following week's guest. And as the weeks progress, it'll filter up a chain of people who can all be linked back to each other through who they know. That person we pass in the street, get behind at the grocery store, sit next to at the bar. They are all more connected to us than we may realize at first glance. A couple handshakes away...or, for the bold, maybe just one. I'm Ana Fernatt and I don't know anyone in LA. But...now I know you.
