Sometimes you just need to s**t your mind off. These are some of the podcasts I go to when I'm looking to have fun and relax , learn something if it comes to that, but mostly just be entertained

1. Taste of Taylor: I've been a fan of Taylor since she was on Cosmo radio back in the day and have thoroughly enjoyed watching her evolution over the years

2. Sounds like a Cult: I don't know about you but I cannot get enough C**t content. Maybe that's why I went into religious deconstruction as a profession but this podcast has a huge library of episodes and is a great one to check out

3. Buffering the Vampire Slayer: I am picky about my rewatch podcasts. Especially for people who were not on the show in the first place. But if you are looking for people who love the show as much as you did the first time you watched it, look no further than this podcast

4. Made it Out: this podcast came to my attention a couple of years ago when it first started and the evolution of the show has been interesting to watch.

5. The Mess Around: there is just something so lovely about watching some of the actors of one of my favorite shows ever get to genuinely be friends and share that friendship with the public

How about you? What are some of your favorite podcasts? Drop them in the comments below so we can all check them out.

I don't need a ton of money, I don't care if I ever get Instagram famous, or even if I ever get to another milestone count.

Sure those things are great, but I have bigger dreams.

I want to be happy

Most relationship accounts, advice, workbooks, and courses are made for straight relationships.

It's exhausting, honestly. As a member of a q***r relationship and as a q***r relationship therapist, I find it all exhausting.

Not much made me feel more "othered" than having to take traditional relationship info and tweek it for my own relationship. And when I became a relationship therapist that works strictly with q***r relationships, I'm still doing the same thing with trainings and education.

It is always appropriate for you to ask for someone who focuses their work on q***r relationships. Primarily, not just as an afterthought.

When you have found support specific to our community, how has that made a difference for you? I'd love to hear your experience! ***rrelationships

Have you stopped to ask yourself why the things you are trying aren't working?
What have you tried, either at the behest of Google or a well meaning friend, to revive your relationship? What hasn't worked, long term?
How long until you feel like you are right back to where you started?

You're not alone, and it doesn't have to be like this. Most relationship material, advice, and helpers out there are looking at relationships from a straight lens, and then adapting for a q***r perspective.

So what if you start from a q***r perspective? What if your relationship was the model you were working from, and not the afterthought?

It is possible to have the type of support that centers your type of relationships. If you want relationship content that is specific to q***r relationships, make sure you are following this account, because I am a therapist and content creator that I ly works with q***r relationships and members of the LGBTQIA+ Community.

And if you have found yourself using something that didn't work (or something that did!) how about sharing it in the comments? Spreading that support out could help someone else with a direction to go in, or to stay away from!

What you say and what you do MIGHT be two different things.

And that does make you human, like all of us.

But do you think that maybe you can pick a day and, idk, NOT have your phones in your hands?

If this isn't something you deal with, share what you do to make sure you are spending time together.

If this is you, what would help you to not zone out with your phone so much?

Leaving religion changed everything about my life. I don't regret it but I also don't want to pretend like the transition was easy, or that the work was light.

But it was worth it.

Here are 5 things I don't do, so that I can protect the healing I have done since leaving and rebuilding.

As a religious trauma therapist, I have worked with many people through their process of leaving, deconstructing, rebuilding, and recognizing where the messages still creep in. There is no way I could do this work if I hadn't done my own work first.

Feel free to add your own "things I don't do" below also! This could be a helpful resource for people who are going through this transition themselves

There have been so many versions of me through the years
- student
- girlfriend
- best friend
- church girl
- youth pastor
- pot stirrer
- problem child
- grad student
- wife
- friend
- former friend

And on some level I am still coming to terms with some of them. But I do know something that every iteration of myself has been an improvement in my life and everyone who gets to stay in my life only gets to stay there because they make it better. And I hope the same goes for me with them.

How about you? Who did you used to be that you're not anymore? Drop some comments below so we can celebrate with you in the ways that you continue to live into your favorite version of yourself.

You gotta stop with the love languages, man. I know most people don't know what they are saying when they say it to their partner but dang, the history of guilt and manipulation in these languages has nothing to do with love.

Here's the thing. So many of us are too afraid to tell our partners what we need from them because we are afraid they will say no or our honesty will be seen as manipulative (which is another form of no).

But expressing your needs with vulnerability just means you trust your partner. It doesn't mean you are requiring them to meet your needs.

That WOULD be manipulative.

Who taught you not to have needs? Who taught you your partner did want to hear them? And what would it be like to believe these four things:

1. I'm allowed to have needs
2. I'm allowed to express them with vulnerability
3. My partner is not required to meet them
4. Their not being able to meet them at the moment (or ever) doesn't mean anything negative about me

Think this over and leave your thoughts in the comments. I'd love to hear them.
