The Vulnerability Hangover
Well, what we often find as speakers is that we give it our all and sometimes when we do deep and vulnerable storytelling, we really pour out a part of our souls that is a part of our deep story, our deep past. It takes an awful lot of emotional energy to bring that pain, that shame, that anguish to the surface so that we can verbalize it in an articulate way.
The Tale of Two Launches
In the blue eyes of my own truth- telling, I had found the oceans of my healing. Finally confronting the sea of my memories buried deep in the ocean floor for so long. And so I surfaced from the ocean and I stepped into the light of the shore. Looking up at the majesty of Table Mountain - an iconic symbol of the world.
Coming Out
At the age of 29

Driving weekend after weekend
Along Chapman’s Peak Drive
Wanting to drown my shame
In the cauldron of foam below
That frothed and eddied
Like a crazed dance
Against the ebony rocks below
