it can be so confronting to speak to family as thats where our issues lie. its where problems have often been created, and perpetuated, and takes a lot of courage and time to really sort them out. I guess conversations with those in the community who just seem to understand us or are going through similar things can give us inspiration and support to address really important things in our own lives.

Our next question for @Sconstantine; Are there any songs of yours that are particularly special to you? What is it that makes them special?

& for our community; Are there any particular songs or music, including of Sammi’s, that resonates for you? What is it about that song/s or music that makes it stand out for you?

yes, dance is medicine for me too. I can express myself emotionally, release things held in my body, and somehow transform what i was feeling into something much more expansive. often there is a feeling of deep appreciation and love for this very messy complicated thing called life. I think it is my form of prayer.

@Blossom497 So true! We are so influenced and molded by our loved ones but we also have the power to break cycles built by them and start conversions around change. I'll get more into this in a second!
