In past episodes, we've talked about how some gay men try to curate the illusion of a "perfect life" to compensate for feelings of shame and rejection. As such, we develop a false sense of confidence through others' validation.
In this episode, my friend, Tillie Lee, joins us to discuss how our upbringing impacted how we practice mindfulness, be more confident, and love ourselves better.

Tillie Lee grew up in small town West Virginia but has called Pittsburgh my home for nearly 10 years. She's always been captivated by stories. Growing up, she was an avid reader which led her to journalism school and eventually becoming a photographer.
She is passionate about encapsulating life and love just as it unfolds. You spend months, maybe years, planning every last detail - she'll capture them as you envisioned.
From the quiet exchanged glances to the more lively moments, she aims to creatively collect all of your memories so you can relive the magic for years to come.
When she's not behind the camera, she typically teaches or takes a yoga class. For her, it's the perfect balance to marathon wedding days. It’s also helpful with the odd angle and reassuring any cold feet.
