What moved you about KJ's Story?
I love this interview! I have been going to Prideful Wellness regularly for several years as an ally. The massages are so professional and restorative. One doesn't have to be LGBTQ to make an appointment and enjoy massage; I highly recommend this business for anyone of any age who needs therapeutic massage . I have known KJ since before their transition and I support and admire them beyond words! My pronouns are she/her and I am over 80.
Thank you for your wonderful comment!

What moved you about Kendra's story?
God Bless you and your family young lady. i feel your pains it ain’t easy. things have to get better. they said it is all in your head, they just couldn’t understand. id say they love you very much and it never said with malicious intent. thank you for your lovely video. what great Kids.
Appreciate Michelle’s story and her vulnerability. I took away an appreciation for the basic humanity and kindness she expressed by making bears to honor her mother in law…despite her own struggles. Beautiful soul💜
What was something you took away from Michelle's story?
It's so important to listen to others and support people experiencing health challenges. Many times those challenges are hidden. Michelle is an amazing community contributor. I appreciate her willingness to be vulnerable to help others. Thank you Michelle!
Great teacher, great person and a great friend 😃
Thank you, David!! ❤
What was your favorite part of Felipe's story?
Boulder food rescue is a joke. Is this just a bunch of old-timers looking up food banks, day shelters, soup kitchens and compiling and plagiarized list of mostly closed and out of business places with new tenants that never heard of the place listed at their address. Out of touch unfamiliar with what's on the internet crawl in a search and that crawl listing will have outdated info. Laziness and too old to get out and confirm that the places they list are open and still at listed address. The old lady at bfr don't get it. Bfr is not doing anybody any good. I have found the same listing thru out boulder. Any church has better more updated info. People like bfr need a hobby and stop trying and thinking they are helpful. They only causing confusion and anger. Bfr LMFAO!
