    Love the conversation balance. Love the spirits and the energy. The topics are relevant and the sections with euphoria moments. Really helps my anxiety and depression. All that to say you’re helping a sistah over here in France 🇫🇷 (grew up here). My psychosis feels less debilitating as a black American 🇺🇸 transwoman (born in Minnesota) in the diaspora with Cameroonian 🇨🇲 roots and hopefully🤞🏾 citizenship when we get our true independence.
