Tina Strawn decided to leave the U.S. for good in 2020. “A Poem About Serenity” is her meditation on the many reasons she decided it was time to “get f*cking free.” Listen to @tinastrawn.bsky.social read it here: youtube.com/shorts/2JbLs...

I’m actually thankful for those years at the gym daily, always teaching and working out as a fit pro so that once I retired and got into my 40s (not ever in a gym) all that muscle turned into fat and now I finally have that highly attainable fat ass that I’ve always wanted. 🥹🥲🙏🏾🙌🏾🤸🏾‍♀️ #levelsofpraise

Am I or am I not Sitting in my sexy studio pool casita High and drinking my coffee While writing my heart out? Why yes, yes I am. And did I just return from a spontaneous road trip adventure to the hot springs and the beach with these lovely ladies? Why yes, yes I did. This writers life suits me.

Anita talks to her about why, as a queer Black woman, she left America in 2020 in search of freedom. @tinastrawn.bsky.social answers listener's questions about expat life and shares why she encourages everyone to ask themselves: what would it feel like to be free?

Reflecting on and writing about almost 5 years of my queer, non-monogamous, solo poly, pansexual adventures. Wow. I fucking love my life. 🥰

Less guard your heart, more guard your nervous system.
