I never got to be a daddy´s girl, but I do have a chance to be me. Growing up the daughter of a scam artist has oddly prepped me in becoming a music one. Now, i´m unpacking my daddy issues to see how they have influenced my choices in art, men, and self-love or rather lack of.

Story of addiction. But not just from the view of the person battling addiction but also the viewpoint from the family, friends, significant others and any other relationship that was impacted. My name is Dan. And for 13 years I battled addiction and nearly lost my life,TWICE. During that time I was broken both internally and externally. For me, it came down to having what we would call a spiritual awakening with God for the hurts, habits and hangups to finally get worked on. Today I am a Ce ...

Often, our schoolyard interactions were us both, mutually, walking around under our invisibility cloaks. Exchanging stickers, collectibles, and conversations while trying not to look to ¨seen¨ so as not ignite bullying. Throughout school I was a strange beast. Kids found me goofy and smart, which mean they either loved or hated me, and if they want…

¨I have ADHD, Diandra. I barely got through 15 pages,¨ replied Josie. Like myself, we were all about TikTok trends. If TikTok told us burger rolls were the best ways to apply foundation, we were splitting buns and patting ourselves with it. When it came to makeup or books, the internet had truly influenced us. Thus, the next day, I was Artist Wayin…

My father´s mother loved my mom, which my father´s other wife hated. Notoriously cruel, she wanted my dad for herself, and, to be honest, she was not up against much. My grandmother had given her children a rough childhood, and the excuse that ¨because mine was too¨ does not fly. I can tell you that because it is the same excuse my father gave to m…

I have always said, ¨I know I am fantastic, but I do not know why you think you are.¨ THAT was the essence of my imposter syndrome: jealousy. He were people that were so boldly empty and truly the epicenter of their world/ the universe, and, I, LOVE, was struggling to even be a participant in mine. My envy was not in their talent because I was, con…

When I look back at my worst relationships and my behavior, I realize I resent my ex lovers, friends, and co-workers because I gave them the most valuable part of me: my creativity. When I am in love with someone, I offer the one thing my parents never challenged me on, even my toxic dad: my ability to create. I was always artistic, even if neither…

If my father was always lying to me, then my mother always thought I was lying to myself. She was my personal fact-checker; consistently checking my feelings, perspectives, and overall narrative over my life to assure I was clear about every single reason and situation. I hated it because, in truth, she was questioning my sanity and my ability to a…

Like most women watching Bridgerton with clutched pearls and pink bunnies, I wondered whether such level of visual romanticism was hitting my head either like a dose of ecstasy or fentanyl. To my modern, male friends, shows like Bridgerton led to higher expectations that eventually led to the female death of “relationship” reality. Yet, to me, and …

It is always strange to catch a friend or lover talking about you because, rarely, have I caught anyone speaking behind my back, kindly. It makes sense, though. Love is promulgated. You can see when someone genuinely likes another, and you, probably, do not even need to ask. True love will speak its truth. For many years, I was the only one in love…

To my father, he was just an open deadbeat, but, to me, he was a crushed dream. Any girl, with an abusive father or even ex, looks to movies and tv to find those feelings that never happened for them. We watch Bridgerton to see what it is to have an emotionally vulnerable man be strong, sweet, and careful as much as caring with your body and heart.…

¨You are obsessed with reciprocity,¨ he declared scarfing down his pizza with no breathe or chew. He was on a diet that he, consistently, broke through junk food binges but made up for with heavier work-outs. He was looking great and feeling so good that he started to put my body down: acting as if I could eat as much as him. Yet, if I did, I would…

My father raised me to believe that my safety lied in making men feel safe with my intelligence . I was too smart for them and playing dumb protected me from either their visceral nature or their eventual, physical exit from my life. It was strange to know my father saw me like a game: one he could manipulate like my mother, in terms of turning our…

When you get a good guy friend, especially straight, it can feel like a miracle.

Part of the magic of children is how wonderfully ethereal they are, unbeknownst to them. I was a wealth of virtues my father never had or, at least, had lost long before I came into his life.

Usually, Happy Hours share the same cast of faces and the common guest stars.

I still remember how much he smiled before, suddenly, he grimaced like a man that had eaten too much sugar and felt his stomach, abruptly, rumble.
