Peach is seriously the drama AND the comedy of this household. She’s gone from anxious little chaos gremlin to feisty, sassy queen of playtime. Honestly, she thinks everyone exists to throw her toys. (And… she’s not wrong.)

She’s also finally learning that cuddles aren’t a trap and that sometimes Mom needs to write her therapy notes without being tackled. Big brother Vader has been her Yoda, teaching her the sacred art of boundaries — aka when to zoomie and when to chill before Mom loses her mind.

From shredding everything in sight to becoming the sweetest snugglebug-in-progress, Peach is proof that rescue dogs are just glow-up stories waiting to happen. Proud of our little gremlin-turned-goddess.

My only agenda is love.

In my work with folks healing from religious trauma, racism, and all the other isms, I don’t tell anyone to hate their religion, culture, or family. I help them sort through what’s toxic and harmful — and what’s still rooted in love, connection, and belonging.

Hate always shows up in the comments. Some of it is laugh-out-loud wild, some of it is ugly and violent. I try to remind myself that for many people, their fear feels like love. They believe they’re protecting their children, their communities, their faith. And fear dressed up as love still comes out as hate.

But here’s the thing: the foundation of most religions is love. Even though I’m not religious anymore, I grew up in it — and like most of us who’ve walked through that fire, I kept the pieces rooted in love and let the rest burn away.

So yes, I see the comments telling me I’m a freak, that I should hide, that I deserve harm. And I respond the only way I know how: no arguments, no defensiveness, no shame. Just love.

To those of you who hate me, who wish me gone: I love you still. Big hugs 🫂
To those of you who show up here with kindness, humor, and solidarity: thank you. You remind me that love always multiplies louder than hate.

That’s the agenda. Love. Period.

It's no surprise this post pulled in the usual suspects: mockery, threats, performative outrage. Honestly? None of this is new. I came out as a q***r woman as a teen, was forced back into hiding for a time… but never again. Flag on my porch, voice turned up, unapologetically myself. The hate is old and honestly… boring. 🥱

That doesn’t mean it doesn’t sting. It’s disorienting to put something tender into the world and have it met with contempt. But I’ve been here before, and I know where I stand: I’m spreading messages of love and acceptance — yes, even toward the people who’d rather see me silenced or harmed.

And to my LGBTQ+ fam: if you have to hide yourself for safety, that’s not weakness. That’s survival. That’s wisdom. Protecting yourself is always valid.

Even if you don’t know me or don’t like me, I still choose love anyway. Not because I’m some angelic being above it all, but because I’m just another human who refuses to let hate be louder than love.

You don’t have to keep doomscrolling to prove you care.

Protecting your nervous system isn’t ignorance, it’s strategy. Drinking in every headline is like chugging saltwater when you’re already dehydrated — it makes you worse, not better.

You’re allowed to stay grounded. You’re allowed to unplug. You’re allowed to let the big stuff find you through people you trust instead of drowning in the feed.

Your impact isn’t measured in hours spent scrolling — it’s in how you show up when it counts. 💜

Today's mission for me is spreading love in small meaningful ways as much as possible. Join me? ❤️💛💚💙💜

Yall... I am still shocked that so many people still dont know these things. No judgment...even many therapists dont know these things and I literally thought it was common knowledge. (Full research backed details in comments) Here I go:

Things I didn’t realize not everyone knew (but absolutely should):

Emotional abuse is trauma.

Spanking a non-consenting human (of any age) is abuse.

Not everyone likes s*x — and that’s not unhealthy.

Kids should never be forced to hug, kiss, or shake hands with adults.

Forcing eye contact isn’t respect, it’s control.

Children aren’t robots — they don’t have to drop everything the second they’re told.

Being related doesn’t mean anyone automatically owes you time, energy, or resources.

And while we’re at it:

Love without safety isn’t enough.

Kids don’t need to “earn” basic care or affection.

Forgiveness is optional.

Boundaries = self-respect, not disrespect.

I know some of this might feel spicy, especially if you grew up with the opposite messages. But here’s the deal: respecting autonomy, consent, and boundaries isn’t just a “therapy thing.” It’s a healthy human thing.

New Blog Post: AI -not your therapist- -also not useless- https://wix.to/o8jq9hj
Unpopular opinion: AI isn’t a therapist. But dismissing it altogether? That’s like burning down the library because of one bad book.
For some people, AI helps with executive dysfunction, emotional processing, communication, even safety anchors between sessions. It’s not flawless — but used wisely, it can be a real support.
