We're hosting a free community workshop on Oct 1st, and we'd love to have you join us!

After Pride: Balancing Self-Care and Community Care in the Season Ahead.

Join us for a relaxed and welcoming gathering and discussion centered on caring for ourselves and our communities after the celebration and connection of Pride month.

Stacey and I will be presenting some information and ideas, and facilitate some discussion about how to stay grounded, connected, and nurture q***r joy as the seasons change and at times looking ahead can feel overwhelming.

This space is open to everyone, with a focus on q***r and trans folks looking to reflect, share, and recharge in good company.

Check out Eventbrite to RSVP, get details & directions - https://shorturl.at/1Z8IN Can't wait to see you there, and spread the word if you can!

ADHD doesn’t mean your relationship is broken. It just means your communication style might need a different kind of support.

In our latest article, we explore how ADHD can impact couples, often in subtle ways that lead to frustration, misunderstandings, and emotional disconnection.

But with the right approach, ADHD can become something you navigate together, not something that pushes you apart.
