Join me in this new episode to talk about the time I dated girls, as means to hide my true feelings. From having a very big crush on my straight friend to admitting to myself that I was gay.

Close your eyes and come with me to the early 2000s: Ashley Tisdale was taking over the red carpet, the iPod was being introduced to the world and your cool older cousin was making posts on Myspace; meanwhile, in Guatemala, a baby boy was learning how to give his first steps. 

In today's episode I talk about my childhood and how growing up I was surrounded by the female sensibility, which encouraged and nourished my inner emotional world.

Remember, you are loved and appreciated <3
