Episode 112

A conversation with Raven

GENDERQUEER, RELATIONSHIP ANARCHIST (BISEXUAL)

50 min • 4 September 2025 (recorded 5 August 2025).

Raven’s pronouns are they/them, and they are genderqueer, a relationship anarchist, and bisexual. Find out what that means to Raven in this episode.

We also talk about queering everything, breaking the rules, the assumptions people make about gender in relation to bodies, how labels describe us but don’t define us, the importance of local community and looking after each other, and letting the unknown be exciting and full of opportunity.

“Labels are so full of contradictions because they’re really useful and they’re utterly unimportant at the same time. I always say that labels describe us, they don’t define us.”

About Raven

Raven describes themself as a genderqueer, bisexual, relationship anarchist. Endlessly curious, creative, and fascinated by the stories we all wrap ourselves in, with a mantra of ‘question everything!’

Raven passionately believes that it is in community that we find ourselves and our strength – even though, and possibly because, ‘community’ can be really hard work!

Wearer of many hats, including parent, forest bathing guide, textile artist, life coach, caterer, NHS advisor, founder of Genderqueer Brunch (a trans peer support meet up), and co-founder of Rainbow Networking (Sheffield’s LGBTQIA+ business networking event). Oh, and they love dogs.

You can find Raven on Instagram @corvuscoaching and on LinkedIn.
