What happened to turning the other cheek?

Because it’s been way too long since you’ve heard me rant about politics… All you Christians (and all spiritually-inclined people for that matter) with your “I stand with Israel” flags and profile pics – I hate to break it to you, but you’re doing it wrong. You think Jesus would have picked sides? I’m pretty […]

Ocean Healing

Ocean Healing

I’ve been home for almost a week, but just reflecting on my time at the ocean… The ocean has always been so healing for me. I didn’t start going to the ocean regularly until Dustin and I started dating. His mom had recently moved to the beach in Florida, so we went down to see […]

… and it is finished.

… and it is finished.

So… that didn’t quite go as planned. hahahaha Oooooohhhhh life. It wasn’t all bad. But dang. That was not what we intended. They spun it a lot differently than what we expected, and our story wasn’t portrayed the most accurately. (For example, we are a polyamorous couple, not a polyandrous couple – there’s a big […]

Here we go…

Here we go…

Dustin and I can finally talk about the super secret huge project we’ve been working on for over two years! ….. We’re gonna be on TV! ….. A TLC reality show about polyamory and open relationships called Seeking Brother Husband. Though I’m not a fan of the name (ha!), I am excited for the opportunity […]

Strength & Dignity

Strength & Dignity

I’ve carried this card around with me in various journals for over 14 years. It was given to me by the prosecutor who worked my case when I was attacked and sexually assaulted in college. It states: “Dear Kim, I wanted to drop you a note and let you know that I have been thinking […]

Addicted to drama

Addicted to drama

Whew… what a year. I know 2020 was a big one for everyone. We all have our stories of how our worlds were changed. So, crazy times, eh? In case you haven’t noticed, there is a clear line being drawn in our society right now and we all need to decide which side we’re going […]

“It Didn’t Happen” and exploring sexual identity

Last weekend, Dustin and I went to see our friend Judy‘s play, It Didn’t Happen: An Erotic Odyssey at a local theater downtown. It’s an autobiographical piece she wrote and starred in, directed by Phillipe Andre Coquet of the Cauldron Theater Company. They debuted it at the Asheville Fringe Arts Festival in January, and then […]

Rediscovering Peace

Rediscovering Peace

I’ve been thinking about true inner peace and carefree-ness a lot lately. I follow Danielle LaPorte’s “The Desire Map” model, so I’m constantly self-assessing and asking myself: “How do I want to feel?” Lately, things like “peaceful” and “carefree” are the answers to that question. Living in Asheville has been a magical experience. But it’s […]

Old writings, current struggles

So I spent the weekend reading through old journals. Some dating back to freshman year of high school, but mostly ones from college. These are ones I’ve never read through before, so I’m reading words I barely even remember writing. Some were actually crazy enlightening – they were from a dark period – my attack, […]

The importance of routine

The importance of routine

I’ve been hella inspired by Sarajane Case on Instagram lately. This woman knows how to show up and get it done! Something she does in her Instagram stories is a “Day in the Life” where she’ll document her daily routine. I’m not quite sure why things like this fascinate me so much. I guess there’s […]
