Cat Dad once fit. It was easy. Out and Proud Transgender Pet Parent matches who I’ve grown into. Self-awareness means updating titles, language, things that mirror my truth. Where I am right now is good and it keeps getting better as I reflect with clarity, pride, and a wink of sass. #CatTrans

I was asked how I’m feeling on my journey, and the truth is I’m pleased. If there’s a hill where something happens, it’s one I built myself. I’d rather live fully and authentically than hide for even one more day. Where I am right now is good, and every step forward feels brighter and more mine.

“There’s no such thing as failure. There’s only discovery.” — Jon Batiste.

In music, a wrong note becomes a new melody. In life, setbacks reveal strength, resilience, and new paths. What feels like failure is really discovery—and part of the song that only you can play.

This stunning oil-on-gold-leaf portrait of Christine Jorgensen is a masterwork of craft and reverence. Christine’s courage changed history. I’m beyond honored to have this one-of-a-kind piece in my home. It’s not just art—it’s legacy, pride, and daily inspiration.
