Fifteen Years Later, I’m Finally Sharing My Coming Out Story

Funny, even just writing the title to this blog post evokes a lot of different emotions. For those of you who don’t know, October 11th is National Coming Out Day, and I am sharing my personal experience. To help shed light on the importance of this day, Egale, Canada’s leading organization for LGBTQI2S people and issues, asked queer content creators to share their stories in the most open and honest way we could. So…. here we go.

Gift Ideas For That Picky Libra In Your Life

For those of you who follow me on social media, you’ll have seen that I’m just slightly excited that it’s finally #LibraSeason. With the fall weather comes some of my favourite parts of life. Cable knit sweaters, beautiful coats, new denim, leather boots, pumpkin spice everything, apple crisp, soups, cozy date nights under a blanket with wine, changing leaves, cooler nights, and so much more….

Oh, and my birthday. ?

Here’s How Our Little Modern Family Is Celebrating Thanksgiving

I will always do my best to find positive in a negative situation. I try to always find the proverbial silver lining – and while not everyone is like me, I know that it personally helps me get through the harder days. And boy oh boy, there’s been a few of those in 2020.

With Thanksgiving around the corner, I realized that this year has been pretty extraordinary – and so to celebrate and give thanks for what we have, Julio, Catherine, Canela & I are going to celebrate in an extraordinary way. Because we deserve it, and so do you.

Inside Out and Upside Down

The more I think about 2020, the more I realize the importance of finding inspiration and joy in the sings. A meal with a friend (safely at a distance) that I haven’t seen in a long time. A walk with Canela in the park to soak up the colours of the season. A workout for me because I deserve the time for myself. And of course the arts and film, which have always been such a source of emotional catharsis for me.
