Hey all! Special Announcement for folks hanging out with us under the Orange Curtain!
Trans Pride Orange County is happening this Thursday!
Lots of resources and a free glam closet! Donate clothes, get involved, get information! We found out a little late and are not sure if we can physically make it but we’ll be there in spirit!
Can’t make it out? Need more resources? Check out our resources/services pages! Let us know what’s helpful and what we can add!
Happy Pride,
Morning, loves! How goes it?
We’ve been busy traipsing back and forth to the Bay to hang with some of the coolest middle schoolers around. Seriously…
Finally at a place where most of have to own the title of “adult,” it’s good practice to surrender to how epically un-cool you are in the midst of 11-13 year old gender rebels. I plan to bow my tarnished unicorn horn and step back gracefully. It’s good self-care to let some of the whippersnappers “eat genders for breakfast!”
So we’re cuddling up, slowing down, catching some outdoor time, and generally honoring our self-care.
What is your favorite form of self-care? What self-care is always accessible to you? Have any tips for the rest of us?
EVENTS
Get out, take care of yourself and heal in community!
ANNOUNCEMENTS
Don’t forget there’s lots of upcoming ways to get involved!
RECOMMENDATIONS
Oi! A little self-promotion or rather invitation to come heal with us! COM|PASSionate REVOLT will soon have physical office space at Deep Dog Yoga, Yorba Linda! However, in the meantime, you can already book appointments for Physical Therapy Wellness Services through COM|PASSionate REVOLT PT or LGBT, Queer, Genderqueer, Non-Binary, Non-Monogamous, and Kink Affirming and Knowledgeable Mind/Body Services through COM|PASSionate REVOLT Healing.
We’re also dreaming up a COM|PASSionate Men’s Group and other COM|PASSionate Out-tings! This is a collaboration so make sure to let us know if you have any ideas! In the mean time here’s some self-care spots on the interwebs– have more? Let us know!
Take care of yourselves,
The COM|PASSionate REVOLT Community<3

*Events are put on by the CR Community/CR Community members. Other events are by friends of the CR Community or of interest to the CR Community. Feeling a little nervous about getting out and involved? Email us and if we can we’ll make some introductions so you have a friendly face to say “Hi” to when you get there!
**Most of these events will be local to Southern CA (unless we notice an event that sets us off into road trip dreamland.) If you want to do a COM|PASSionate event round-up for your local area let us know!
***Are you an individual, meet-up or community group that has some COM|PASSionate events of your own? Email us for details on how to submit your event to our calendar!
****Have your own story about healing or thoughts on healing? Are you a queer vegan healer? Want to talk to your community about ways you’re living consciously and connected? Do you want your blog, org, or event to be featured on one of our running series or want to do an interview introducing yourself to the COM|PASSionate REVOLT Community? Are you a unicorn in a pony world disguising your magickal star dust sprinkling mane to live amongst the commoners?

Hey Everyone!
We’re back from Austin! Actually, have been for a couple of weeks- sorry for the delay!
We wanted to talk a little bit about our trip generally and also share some take-aways from the workshops that we attended. Below are the full titles, speakers names and any other link information we could wrestle up!
We feel so lucky to be able to share these resources with you and Austin treated us so well! Thanks Contemporary Relationships!

Good Morning REVOLUTIONARIES! Happy Monday!
Today’s Mental Health Mash-Up Ep5 is about Visibility. Skye and Traci will discuss the changing nature of queer/trans visibility in the media, the way we are in control and not in control of our visibility and the choices we make about our visibility that may or may not feel good to our bodies, brains, hearts and spirits.
As always you can listen here:
