Feature Friday with Matthew Chaffee

Happy Friday, friends. The weeks are running together and what day it is means almost nothing anymore, but we’re so happy it’s finally the weekend. The last few weeks have been some of the busiest for us (feeling grateful for that) and we’re looking forward to relaxing just a bit this weekend. Do you have any fun plans?

This week’s Feature Friday is Matthew, who shares what it was like growing up in a conservative environment, the response he got from his senior high school class when he came out in front of them by reading an essay (!), and his advice for those struggling to come out. We enjoyed getting to know Matthew and we think you will, too. See what we mean below…

Feature Friday with Christopher Wiacek

Happy Friday! How are you feeling this week? It doesn’t really feel like a Friday to us, since we’re home everyday and the kiddos are out of school, but we’re doing our best to celebrate it anyway with music and biscuits to start the weekend off right. Hope you’re doing the best you can, friend, and enjoy Christopher’s Feature Friday, where shares his perspective on life, loss, and realizing where he truly belongs. Check out what we mean below…

Feature Friday with Michael Power

Happy Friday, friends. It’s been a pretty awful week, hasn’t it? From the tornadoes that devastated Nashville (click here to help those affected) and with Super Tuesday, it seems like a rough couple of days for pretty much everyone.

Today’s Feature Friday is Michael, who lives in Stockholm with his husband. Here he shares his biggest inspiration, what it was like growing up, at one point, in a “blokey” environment, and how his mother took it when he came out to her (hint: it gave us chills in the best possible way). We enjoyed getting to know Mark, and we think you will, too. See what we mean below…

Feature Friday with Rowyn Mottershead

Happy Friday! Any plans this weekend? Middle kiddo Z started school today (yay!), something we’ve been hoping would be able to happen for a while now. His brother and sister are already enrolled in school and he was feeling a little left out, so we’re all thrilled he’ll be able to finally go to school now, too.

Today’s Feature Friday is a special one. Rowyn has a beautiful, important story to share, and his words on life, love, and self-acceptance ring true no matter what stage of life you’re in. We loved getting to know Rowyn and we think you will, too. See what we mean below…

Feature Friday with Oscar Hall

Happy Friday! This week’s Feature Friday is wise beyond his years. Oscar has a lot to say about being liked vs. being respected, and the importance of self-self-realization. We learned a lot from Oscar and we think you will, too. Take a look below…

Feature Friday with Pedro Reyes

Happy Friday! We’re back with Feature Friday this week with a couple from our neck of the woods. Pedro and Evan are from a small town about an hour and a half away from us, so we can relate to their experience of growing up gay in the south. What we can’t relate to, however, is how brave and courageous they were for coming out while still in high school, and even attending prom together as a couple. Wonder what life would have been like if we had come out in high school?

Read on below to find out more about Pedro and Evan!

Feature Friday with Johnny Sibilly

Happy Friday! We are so excited about week’s Feature Friday, y’all. Johnny is an actor, model, and LGBTQ activist, though we’re sure you already knew that. One look at his Instagram and you immediately get a sense of who he is: strong, independent, kind, and caring, but not afraid to put trolls in their place when they need to be. We had so much fun getting to know a little bit more about him, his relationship with his boyfriend William, and how he came to star in one of the biggest TV shows of 2018. Take a look below to see what we mean…

Happy Friday, y’all! Today’s FF is a special one, as it’s of one of our dear friends, Brian. He’s an interior designer, has designed multiple houses (and hosted a few shows) for HGTV, and is one hell of a friend. Seriously, he’ll do anything for his friends and he’s incredibly loyal. We had so much fun reading a little more about him (and seeing some of his gorgeous interiors) and we think you will, too. Take a look below to see what we mean…

Diego talks about growing up with disabilities, coming out to his father (and what made it actually pretty funny), and how he overcame being bullied throughout the years. We loved getting to know Diego and his backstory, and we think you will, too. Take a look below to see what we mean…

Feature Friday with Hugh Black and Cody Prelec

Happy Friday, friends! This week’s Feature Friday is such a fun, loving story. You’ll get to know Hugh and Cody, two Air Force pilots who share how they make a long distance relationship work, the importance of “risk analysis” when coming out to people, and their experience as being an openly gay, married couple in the military. We had a blast learning about these two (plus, their pictures are so fun) and we think you will, too. Take a look below to see what we mean…
