And learning to embrace my sense of self. Yesterday I cancelled my first stream back on Twitch since mid-December. It should have been a joyous thing – coming back and getting settled in chatting with the community. But my spouse has a horrible cold and actually called out of work, which is a rare thing … More On Creativity
And why that’s perfect for me. Another time I will write on why I started streaming and more of my early journey, but for now know I moved to Twitch June 22nd of 2020 and that day is when I started to take this thing seriously. Even on Mixer I didn’t exactly half-ass anything – … More On how hard streaming is.
And where I’ve found my footing. I originally thought to write about my journey for balance that started late 2021, but every time I started pen to paper it just felt bleak and miserable. I don’t feel bleak and miserable anymore and I’m not the biggest fan of putting negativity into the world. Instead, I … More On balance.
And why I’m choosing to believe in myself moving into the new year. Alternate title: Good-bye, shit sandwiches. One year ago today I officially quit my regular day job to pursue this online career full-time. It was an irresponsible choice in one way as I certainly wasn’t making full-time income online. But I was suffering … More On 2022.
And the fears it brings later in life. This should be quick – I just want to get something off my mind, rather than deep dive into it. Maybe one we can expand on these thoughts if there’s community interest. My spouse and I bought our house five years ago. It’s our first house and … More On being ‘gifted’.
And why I’m so upset by what’s happening in America. When I take a step back and look over my time I’ve lived a pretty privileged life. I’m white. I’m straight. I identify with the body I was born to. I was raised on the cusp of lower and middle class, but was never at … More On Roe vs. Wade
And how long that is without power. I’m writing today’s blog post in the aftermath of a derecho-style storm with confirmed tornado touchdowns that roared through Ontario on Saturday May 21st. I think this will be a bit more of my ramble-y thoughts rather than a to-a-point style post, but what else am I going … More On 100 Hours
And what I hope they become. In case it wasn’t obvious: I am a creator out here on the internet. As a creator I have various social media and “spaces” and I have recently gone through the exercise of defining what I hope to accomplish with each of these spaces. Especially if you’re a creator … More On my spaces.
Especially in men’s spaces. First, a forward. I have already written the entire post below and I have been sitting on posting it for far too long. Because I’m scared to put my real feelings out there and become “that chick” who complains about being a woman and always yammers on about feminism and blah … More On being a woman.
I‘m finally posting on this darn blog. I need this website to go live and I would like to have a blog post to go with it, so here we are. I hope to use this space to flesh out my thoughts and experiences with: Life in the content world as an introvert. Life in … More Hello World!
