Hannah is a self described 36 year old "gaybaby!" She came to the realization she is gay during a stay in drug rehab 3 years ago - and has remained sober ever since! - and describes the process as a "slow awakening to always knowing."   Hannah it's been a license professional counselor for about 10 years now and currently works for betterhelp.com. She is mom to her awesome 5 year old son, Truett, and dog mom to 2 Rhodesian Ridgebacks who think they are lapdogs. In her spare time, you're likely to find Hannah immersed in nature, camping, backpacking, bike packing, marathon running, nature photography, kayaking - anything that gets her outdoors! Other hobbies include reading non-fiction, learning, drumming, and spending time with her girlfriend - all of which are pursuits she wouldn't enjoy today if she hadn't embraced her authentic self! Hannah's story is an inspiration for anyone who feels held back by their religion, demonstrating to all of us that a life of vibrancy and fulfillment awaits us when we start living as the people we were made to be.   Connect with Hannah: Hannah's coming out songs are:   "Waking Up" by MJ Cole "I am" by backpacking and "Fidelity" by Regina Spektor   The books that have had the greatest impact on her life are:   Braving the Wilderness by Brene Brown   Thy Queendom Come: Breaking Free from the Patriarchy to Save Your Soul by Kyndall Rae Rothaus   Affirming: A Memoir of Faith, Sexuality and Staying in the Church by Sally Gary   and Outlove: A Queer Christian Survival Story by Julie Rodgers.   WILD GOOSE FESTIVAL LINK  Discount Code:  A-MIDGE
