finding balance

It doesn't have to be perfect to be just right. If not art, some hobby or venture that allows you to be in a moment that is not tied to HIV, or responsibility to anyone but yourself.

As I approach my 17th year of living with HIV, I can clearly hear God's voice, I'm happy to hear his voice, I realize how much more painful it was not being able to hear it.

Having navigated the challenges of living with HIV, I've experienced firsthand the stigma and misconceptions surrounding this virus.

Sex and intimacy were robbed from me such a long time ago that I've forgotten how beautiful and miraculous my own body as a woman is.

The human immunodeficiency virus is life altering, scary and confusing. And yet, I can't honestly say I hate it all the time.

Discovering my HIV diagnosis was an unexpected turn that reshaped my life's trajectory.

Did you know getting dressed up is a form of self-care? I literally did not think of it as self-care until now.

I'm sure we all struggle with stress and anxiety and it's really important to find ways of dealing with it. We're all different and what works for me might not work for you...

Living with HIV, my biggest fear isn't the virus itself; it's the fear of losing control over my own narrative.

It doesn't matter how you became positive; what matters is how you live your positive life.
