In Blooming, I deliver the story of my experience navigating my identity as a queer person and my creative expression manifested in my drag persona. I hope to inspire others to live their lives authentically and allow themselves to bloom by sharing my own personal experiences as well as universal concepts of transformation. The primary comparison I draw is between our experience of change and that of natural processes such as metamorphosis and flowers blooming. Overall, this experience was quite liberating, and I hope that other queer people on their journey of self-discovery can find some inspiration in this video.
