Hi cutie!

Quick note that my next Patron Live Chat will be Sunday, December 11 at 11AM PDT / 2PM EST / 8PM Berlin. If you can't come, please DM me your questions ahead of time. I will send out the link the morning of, and post the full chat to Patreon afterward. I hope to see you there!

Today is Part 2 of how we start hard conversations with people we care about. This will focus on sharing events, histories and identities. If you missed Part 1 (on sharing likes, wants and needs), you can watch it here.

Quick content warning that I reference the struggle of disclosing sexual assault between 16:46 - 19:56, so please skip that time code if you don't want to think about that today.

As always, I'm just offering practical examples of how I personally navigate this in both low and high stakes scenarios. If you struggle with self advocacy or conflict resolution, I hope this can be of service!
