q: where am i? what is this?

This is hi, lauren deborah! β€” which is essentially my digital journal β€” where I do not pretend to be an expert on anything but I do lean into the fact that I cannot shut up. Someone once tried to sass me by calling me a chronic oversharer and now I have an entire brand built off of it so thank youuuuuuuu for the inspo!

I mostly talk about my sexuality, sobriety, and my excessive celebrity crushes. I take questions from readers, too. Drop me a line here. 🌈 🀍 βœ¨πŸ†

q: who is lauren?

My name is Lauren Deborah (she/they). I like to write the truth (about myself, mostly, but not always). πŸ•Ί I also host the podcast My Dad Stole My Limelight 🌈 β€” a podcast about coming out β€” that lives on Vancouver’s 604 Podcast Network.

🌈🌈🌈 You can see more of what other super fun things I have created or been involved in here!

q: why hi, lauren deborah?

Because it feels like a love letter from your BFF. Readers often tell me they love to wake up and start their Friday by reading my digital journal… then I pinch myself. This is where I say the things I would never say out loud. hellllloooo back stage pass into my deep (and maybe dark*) thoughts!

*I will take the last slice of vegan pizza at a wedding and not feel bad about it.

q: is it really free?
