Who Are You In Spite of Your Mental Health Issues?
So many of us hit up Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram just to say “I have mental health issues,” but what does that really mean?

I was So Afraid 7 Years Ago
Seven years ago I left the Church. I’d been a part of one church group or another since I was a baby, and so to leave Church felt in a very real way like leaving God behind. But the more that I thought about it, the more that I started to realize that like many…

Ask Me Anything: View from The Lower Mainland
I like doing these little AMAs, with myself. They help me get to know myself better, and force me to ask questions that I need to answer but don’t always know how until I have the opportunity to write about them. So here we go. What is the world missing? The world is missing its…
