Turning The Page

07/09/2022

Another Brainspired Publishing book that you’ll absolutely love! You could receive a free copy too!

I’m giving away two free copies of my memoir “Breaking Free: 45 Years in the wrong body”, published by Brainspired Publishing.

My memoir is about my life experiences while in the wrong body. It’s raw and honest and shows my path toward womanhood. I hope it can be a source of comfort for those going through similar issues and feeling alone.

You must like, comment, or sign up for my newsletter on my website to enter my contest. In your comment, answer this question: why do you think it’s essential that our q***r stories be told?

This contest is in no way affiliated with Facebook. In addition, you must be 18 years of age to enter the contest and be Canadian or American due to the shipping cost.

The contest runs from September 7, 2022, to September 14, 2022. The winners will be chosen at random and announced soon after. Winners must contact me within the week to claim their prize.

Good luck!

The Religion of Social Media - Episode 2 / Season 3

The pandemic has changed our social media habits. What's appropriate and not for social media is also different these days. One hard truth is that in order for many of us to have contact with other people; friends, family, or even work, our connectivity is at an all time high. People are flocking to a variety of platforms and platforms are developing at an alarming daily rate. We now accept long hours on Social Media as the "new normal".

Anything with that much exposure can become a religion. Listen in as Joie and Kero discuss their shared experiences, some of the technology, and have a comfortable conversation with social media professional, Ferdinand Eric.

As always, we choose to be ourselves, raw and uncensored. We want our podcast to feel as if you're sitting with us and we are all just thinking out loud. We laugh, we swear, we trip over our words. Yes, we are the real deal! We aim to NOT be over rehearsed, stuffy, or robotic. Positively Joieful is a good vibes, good time, and good listening podcast.

11/05/2021

Welcome to our podcast page. We are excited to bring you a new season of Positively Joieful . Stay tuned...
