This audiobook is about things I’ve learned along the way to knowing my true nature as consciousness or the boundless. Some of the topics in the audiobook I learned through working with people as a psychotherapist. Clients would come in with concerns or questions, and we would grapple with them together.

Mirrors are fascinating objects. They show us what we look like when we cannot see our own selves. Sometimes they show us the realities we don’t want to confront. Some people even speculate that mirrors are doors to other dimensions. Janet is an average woman who’s never thought about what transgender people go through, so she blatantly disregards their narrative as invalid. She’ll soon have a lot to learn.
