Hey there! I hope you're doing as well as can be. I wanted to reach out and share some things, people, and the links associated with “it all”. Things I find thought-provoking are: mutual aid, queer issues, and parenting. I'd love for you to join me in exploring these areas further. I've compiled a list of links, and I'd be excited if you could take a look and engage with them. Whether it's showing support for some important people in my life, i.e., delving into queer entrepreneurs and activism, I might be someone you want to chat with (again)? I offer free coaching calls talking about these topics.
Don’t want to meet, no problem; I invite you to find unique apparel (see the “sexy homo” shop below), click on a go fund me, and read past issues that bring together the practice of mutual aid I have been committed to for over four years now.
1. Explore Mutual Aid thoughts & Funds Me's and direct donations:
Support Freesoul’s Journey to Recovery; there are more opportunities for direct support here. Send me a message to learn more about helping with Freesoul’s legal fees.
Support needed that is local to the SF Bay Area
and a local Bay Area queer friend needing support.

I do hope this finds you as well as can be in these turbulent times.
Reply here; how are you holding up?
Peace and easeful wishes are coming your way!
