Listeners! I have my first couple double-interview! I am so very grateful to my guests, Taj Ruler (she/they) and Kelsey Cramer (she/her), for sharing their stories of discovering their love — which resulted in finding their true selves too. This episode is literally the love story of my dreams, holy moly, a rom-com could never compete.
Side note! I have a fun game for you to play as you listen: Every time I say “Cute” or “Beautiful” you get to eat a Twizzler (my fav candy). I say those two words A LOT so ENJOY THE SUGAR RUSH!
In this episode:
-Queer is a wonderful word for just ~being~!
-Compt het (compulsory heterosexuality) is a part of this story and so many of ours!
-Barbie is our queer icon!
-Someone’s hand pushing hair out of your face is a life-changing act!
-Taj and Kelsey name their plants, and that is very relatable!
-This love story involves the use of the Marco Polo app!
-Note to self: Feeling compelled to take care of someone when they’re sick, wanting and needing to show up, could be inklings!
-Ohhhhh weddings (especially queer weddings) are always a place to reflect and realise where your heart lies and I love it!
-This episode is the perfect example of (as Kelsey put it): There’s no correct time or age to come out and that never too late to live as your authentic, full self!
-Your body knows best, it can tell you what your mind hasn’t caught onto yet!
-How to define an official first date when you realise you have been unknowingly dating for months? Taj and Kelsey answer this question!
-This is a “Ships passing in the night” story until the universe said “Now!”
-Let it be on the record, Taj knows how to light a fire!
