You are not behind — because queer people don’t follow timelines. We rewrite them.
In this episode we discuss Second Adolescence — that beautiful, chaotic, and sometimes slutty season of queer self-discovery that most of us didn’t get to have the first time around. We talk talk about why this phase is essential, not immature. And we break down how internalized shame, religious trauma, and societal scripts keep us from exploring our full erotic and emotional selves — and how to finally give yourself permission to fuck around and find out.
I'll be sharing stories, some of my messiest moments, and how exploring without shame became the path to my wholeness. This isn’t just about sex — it’s about self-trust, creativity, and coming home to who you are.
So if you've ever felt like you're late to life — grab your journal, your lube, or both.
Let's talk about the adolescence we never got, and the queer joy we’re still claiming.
