Any of this sound familiar?

  • “I’m thinking about coming out or in the process. I’m not sure how my family, friends, boss, or spiritual community will respond. TBH I’m still dealing with some shame.”

  • “I’m exploring my identity. I was “raised heterosexual” and cisgender and I need a safe place to figure out my sexuality, gender, or both.”

  • “I’m healing wounds from non-affirming loved ones or spiritual communities. I’ve dealt with religious trauma, rejection, lost relationships, or violence.”

  • “I’m still figuring out my queerness/transness - my body, sex, relationships, work and career, and relationship transitions.”

  • “I’m FED UP with society. I’m ready to flip the script and reclaim the power that’s been stolen from me.”
