🏳️‍⚧️ Happy Transgender Day of Visibility!

Today, and every day, we celebrate and honour the transgender and gender-diverse community. Visibility matters — it saves lives, builds community, and reminds every trans person that they are seen, valued, and respected ❤️

International Transgender Day of Visibility is dedicated to honouring transgender people and raising awareness of the discrimination faced by trans people around the world.

Trans people are valid, they are seen, and they matter! ❤️

The Protector–Abuser Dynamic 💪

Trauma survivors can develop a strong pull toward individuals who appear powerful, protective, or dominant. This is not random. When safety has been unpredictable, the nervous system may learn to associate strength, authority, or control with protection.

In some cases, this leads survivors to form attachments with individuals who initially present as protective figures but later become controlling or abusive.

Healthy safety looks different: ❤️
It does not require fear.
It does not demand loyalty in exchange for care.
It does not isolate you from others.
It does not punish you for having needs.

Voices matter. Collective voices have more power ❤️

The Province will reinstate $53.6 million in grants and funding to support people with disabilities, seniors and education initiatives for 2026-27.

“Nova Scotians have spoken. We listened, and we are reinstating supports to disabilities programming, seniors programming and African Nova Scotian and Indigenous students. These are grants that help people meet their basic daily needs,” said Premier Tim Houston. “We wish we could do more. We will continue to look for opportunities to support all Nova Scotians as our fiscal picture improves.”

The government is reinstating $21.4 million in grants to support seniors and people with disabilities, and to help African Nova Scotians and Indigenous people access educational opportunities. Another $10 million will go back to organizations that support those groups.

It is also re-establishing $22.2 million in funding to community programs that support seniors, disability groups and the African Nova Scotian and Indigenous communities.

The deficit will now stand at $1.24 billion before contingency.

With the ever changing environment in which we live, work and attend school, it is no wonder why we can sometimes feel unsafe within our own bodies. There are steps we can take to create our safe spaces, so that we can feel calmer.

If you feel overwhelmed by negativity or stress, creating a safe space for yourself can help you calm down and feel more at ease.

Our hearts are heavy today as we reflect on yesterday’s tragic events in Tumbler Ridge.
Violence doesn’t just impact one place — its shockwaves travel far. Here in the Interior, our communities are deeply connected, and when one of us suffers, we all feel the weight.
It’s normal if this news has brought up grief, fear, anger, or uncertainty. Whatever you’re feeling right now is valid.
We also know some people may be especially affected — those with lived experience of trauma or violence, people working in emergency response or helping roles, families with school‑aged children, and anyone who’s feeling unsettled or overwhelmed. Please remember: you are not alone.
If you’re struggling, support is available:
📞 Interior Crisis Line Network: 1‑888‑353‑2273
📞 BC Mental Health Support Line: 310‑6789 (no area code)
📞 9‑8‑8 by call or text
In times like these, choosing connection matters.
Let’s lean on one another — with compassion, patience, and care. When we listen deeply and hold space for each other’s pain, we strengthen the bonds that make our communities resilient.
You are seen. You are valued. And we walk through this together. 🤍

In teaching boundaries over the years, a consistent theme emerges where clients feel they are not truly allowed to be confident, assertive, have their needs met, or be fully heard. Learning through life that other people are allowed these things, but not them.

Confidence, equality, assertiveness and having a voice and opinion are present in healthy relationships and expecting others to be good, kind and respectful to you should be the norm, as you are as deserving as any other human being ❤️

Sharing a wonderful page with amazing boundary explanations. You deserve to have happiness and peace, take risks and choose a good life for yourself (No matter what anyone else has told you in life) ❤️

PSA to all conscientious and highly responsible people: the natural and appropriate consequences of their actions are not your fault.

Even if they loudly bluster and blame.

Even if they’re offended.

Even if they are convinced they’re a victim.

Even if they try to guilt-trip you.

Even if, even if, even if.

That’s a boundary.

❤️

It can be a confusing time for many people, including our youth. Conversations can help us feel heard and validate concerns, and they can also help us discuss ways to feel safe, which is important to our youth's sense of security. We can discuss how our actions and words can help others feel safe in our community as well. Open conversations can go a long way for youth to feel supported ❤️

It's important to talk to young people about events in the United States.
It's important to open the conversation about issues, to validate feelings and concerns, to identify ways to support immigrants and refugees, to be a role model for not being silent and for standing up for what is right. Identify ways that young people can feel supported in their community.
