  • Some of the realest conversations you will ever hear

    I laughed, I cried, I nodded my head in agreement. Real people from all backgrounds and walks of life talking about what it feels like to be human in the context of one of the most stigmatized and least talked about human experiences.

That’s a lot more than you can say about a lot of people. I just want to add that you are needed here, that you deserve to be here, and that there is no shame in get... more
