In this final installment for season one I tell a story I have never told about deciding how and when I wanted to come out and how that was jeopardized by some behind the scenes betrayals. It was interesting to process some of my thought processes from 1995-2004 through the lens of 2020. I was young and had to make tough decisions that many on all sides disagreed with sometimes. It has taken this long for me to be comfortable enough to really talk about it. Throughout we hear three unreleased live recordings that I recently found going through a bunch of CD-Rs. 

Hear about how things unfolded and devolved after making Standing at the Edge as my experience with a major label soured a bit. I also hang up on Madonna. 

In this episode I discuss how it came to be that I signed to Sony and made Standing at the Edge. It was interesting to tell the story from now, 18 years after it all began. From signing to Sony to meeting Producer/Engineer Kevin Killen to how Producer Patrick Leonard got involved. Join me as I go down memory lane about my most popular album to date. I also cried again, this time talking about recording Bloom.

This episode features the 3rd and final installment of my conversation with my husband, Kurt. We discuss the aftermath of my cervical spine surgery, 6 months after we met. Then we talk about getting married and our life together. 

In this episode I discuss my current emotional and mental state as we live through these times before talking about the new Taylor Swift album, Folklore. From there is on to part 2 of my conversation with my husband, Kurt. We go further in depth surrounding his identity and experiences as a biracial man. We then switch gears to talk about how we met and our very dramatic first month together. Next week will be the third and final installment of this conversation.
