For those of you who don’t know, I’m trans!

Yesterday officially marks 2 years since I started HRT. Until now, I’ve been comfortable with most pronouns, but moving forward, I would like to use she/her or they/them.

Starting this journey during a time when anti-trans sentiment is so high has been one of the craziest decisions I’ve ever made, but it’s also the best decision I’ve ever made.

There were many days when my transness felt like a curse, but I finally understand that it’s a gift. It’s a gift to understand myself so deeply and to love myself enough to let her shine.

The world has not been kind to trans people as of late, but the world has nothing on the people in my life who have been there for me the past two years.

Trans people have existed long before the word transgender, and they will continue to exist until the end of time.

I haven’t posted much over the past two years because it’s hard to find the right picture when you’re constantly changing. But, I figured I’d share some recent pictures as I start to feel happier with the person I see in them. 💖

🚨 Ever feel like you’re working so hard in the gym… but not seeing the same results anymore?

Let’s zoom out for a second 🧘‍♀️

You spend maybe 3 hours a week working out — but what about the other 165 hours?
That’s where the real transformation happens.

Ask yourself:
🌱 Nutrition — Fueling with color + real food or quick fixes?
😴 Sleep — Getting your full 7–9 hours or running on empty?
🧠 Stress — Calm and grounded or chasing chaos?
💓 Recovery — Taking time to breathe, move, and reset?

✨True results come from harmony — not just hustle.✨

This week, pick one area of your “Other 165” to improve.
Track how you feel. Notice your energy. Watch your body respond.

At Haute Healing Oasis, we help you optimize the whole picture — mind, body, and spirit — with therapies that restore, recharge, and realign ⚡️

👉 Book your session today and feel the shift from the inside out.

The DOLLS at the DOLL DEPOT are SOLD OUT!

Can’t wait to share our gorgeous and powerful work with the world.

The award-winning Collideoscope Repertory Theatre Company, CRTC, returns for its fourth season to present ‘Welcome to THE DOLL DEPOT: Your One-Stop Shop for Exotic & Ethnic Exports.’

‘Welcome to THE DOLL DEPOT’ is a devised therapeutic theatre piece featuring drama therapy students and professionals. CRTC invites you to enter into the world of the greatest toy store in the entire universe filled with the most multicultural and magical doll collection in history.

‘Welcome to THE DOLL DEPOT’ uses the narrative frame of dolls, action figures, cultural consumerism, and capitalism. This satirical and provocative play examines how white supremacy dictates which bodies matter and which ones do not. How can we resist these narratives to self-determine our worth to live quality, fulfilling lives? Enter into a space where play pushes unimaginable boundaries.
Come play with the DOLLS at the greatest toy store in the entire universe!
