In this episode, I speak with the author of Perfectly Queer, Jillian Abby.
From CPA, to licensed massage therapist, to homeschooling mom, to craft beer bar owner, to author, corporate storyteller and LGBTQ+ advocate– Jillian Abby is no stranger to making major life changes in pursuit of the most fulfilling life. Her path took her from Buffalo, to Bolivia, to Boston, and beyond only for her to learn one key lesson: finding alignment and fulfillment is an inside job. Her debut memoir, Perfectly Queer (Hay House 2023), was released worldwide and hit #1 on Amazon’s new releases for LGBTQ Memoirs and Biographies. It was included on Good Morning America’s list of 15 delightful books perfect for spring reading, Wondermind’s 13 Books by LGBTQ+ Authors that Feel Like Therapy, and Penguin Random House’s 2023 list of Pride In Your Words: Memoirs that Give Voice to the Queer Experience.
