On Day 7 of Pride Month I challenge you to never stop learning and to embrace the differences in one another. How boring life would be if we were all the same. Take a look around your heart and mind. It’s ok to check in with yourself and ask why you believe the things that you do. If something no longer sits well with you...make some changes. xo @imsteph

I believe most of us grow up doing everything we can to make our families proud. Deciding to commit to someone for the rest of your life is one of the biggest decisions you’ll ever make. It’s only natural that we seek love and approval from our families in times of big decisions and milestone moments. Joanie and I are very fortunate to both have supportive families who love us wholly. If I had to do this without the support of my family, I can only imagine the incompleteness I’d feel. I think in those moments, it’s very important to hold on tight to the ones that are there and do support you. Just as coming out is an individual process all members of the LGBT+ community go through, our families and friends have their own process. Some need a bit more time than others. It was this view that got me through a difficult period with my own family. But with time, patience and persistence I’ve found all of us to be in a really good place. I love them, they love me and they absolutely adore Joanie. HAPPY 1 YEAR! CHECK MY STORY FOR BEHIND THE SCENES.

Coming out is and will always be my greatest accomplishment. It's been about 7 years since I awkwardly asked my roommates to gather on the couch as I began what can only be described as the world's most anticlimactic conversation. My pride in myself and my community only continues to grow every year that I become more of myself. My parents never created a closet for me to come out of, and for that I am so lucky. But, as a femme lesbian, coming out is quite literally an EVERYDAY and EXHAUSTING task. I play a constant tug of war with wanting to prove myself, yet holding the assertion that I have nothing to prove. I "fit in" with cis girls, except that I clearly don't. I overanalyze my outfits to make sure I look "gay enough," but then go get a spray tan and wear bright florals, because that's also who I am. The list goes on. It's HARD, so wherever you are in this process, my heart is with you. Happy National Coming Out Day! ️‍

Those first look feels doing me right! Also doing @huffpost right!! Check out the article in my story.

WE ARE YOUR FRIENDS, COWORKERS, YOUR SISTERS & BROTHERS. WE ARE THE STRANGER THAT SMILES AT YOU ON THE STREET. WE AREN'T GOING ANYWHERE! LET'S TEAR DOWN WALLS & SHAKE UP WHAT WE'VE BEEN TAUGHT TO THINK ABOUT THOSE WHO ARE DIFFERENT THAN US. XO: @imsteph

I don't know how you do what you do...I'm so in love with you. It just keeps getting better.

Just stealin kisses in the rain.
