30 today. On Valentine’s Day. And honestly… I’ve never felt more grateful. 🤍
Grateful for the lessons that shaped me, the love that carried me, and the strength I found when I didn’t think I had any left. These last three decades taught me how to heal, how to grow, how to forgive, and most importantly — how to love myself deeper.
Today isn’t just about getting older. It’s about honoring every version of me that made it here. The dreams, the heartbreaks, the wins, the quiet moments, and the loud celebrations. I’m stepping into this new decade with intention, softness, courage, and so much gratitude.
Born on a day about love — so here’s to loving harder, living louder, and becoming everything I’m meant to be.
Cheers to 30. Cheers to growth. Cheers to becoming.
Happy Birthday to me. ❤️✨

Daily Poetry - Abundance 💫⭐️✨
Instability, unfavorable circumstances, no role models to follow.
Life never allowed me to have much.
A broken family with broken wallets, pieces that never fit back together.
Success and abundance was never something I thought I’d ever touch.
Scarcity mindset from childhood trauma, nothing I could change.
I began changing the way I thought and focused on things I could rearrange.
I reshaped my views on money relationships, morals, values to avoid those I had learned.
Proud of the person I am while feeling gratitude for all that I’ve earned.
So now and forever, Give me more and never less
I can have all the things I want, achieve anything I envision, and always be the best.
Because abundance is a mindset first, then, something you create.
A lesson in life that I’m glad I didn’t learn too late.

✨ 👯♂️To my best friend👯♂️ ✨
Life has this crazy way of bringing two chaotic, big back, kind, free sprited individuals together. I would describe our friendship as authentic, being able to be our true selves and living life the way we demand it to be. Refusing to settle for anything less. Even if it means leaving people and things that don’t serve us anymore. I can genuinely say that you know more of me than anyone on this planet. We’re always there for each other. Late night deep talks, people thinking we’re married (eww I would never), all the games of league (that you lost us) and big back adventures, travels, crazy party adventures, pure love. I’ll never forget all these times that we had together!
Although you’ll be so far away now, we’ll always remain best friends ! You’re stuck with me bish.
ILYSM BESTIE, good luck out there! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Love,
Donny ❤️

Happy 10 Year Anniversary 💫
🏳️🌈 I flew all the way to Vegas just to perform w/ @gbfdlv . I learned the routine in two days and performed it for two days. We performed a set dedicated to each color of the rainbow and this was the final rainbow set. I AM BEAT. 🏳️🌈
GBFD gave me a safe place for expression through dance. It gave me the ability to represent our LGBTQIA community! It gave us the chance to express ourselves, be ourselves and spread love. For that, I’m forever grateful.
This team means so much to me and played such a huge role in my development as a dancer/person. I love this team with all my heart and (as an alumni) I hope you guys continue to carry the legacy on!
Much love ❤️
Donovan
