DYLAN'S TRUTH Dylan Salacia

Hi Everyone and welcome to Dylan's Truth, an audio journal produced by me, Dylan Salacia.

If you haven't already, please subscribe to this feed in your podcast player of choice. 

I'll be releasing new episodes each Monday, with the inaugural episode coming out Monday, February 22nd. 

Like many, my life has changed dramatically in the last year. COVID-19 sparked a rapid series of events that led to me to leave my corporate PR job, confront lifelong struggles with childhood trauma, gender identity, & difficult family dynamics.

I've made major life decisions, like changing my name from David to Dylan, my identity from gay man to non-binary person, and separating myself from the large majority of my family.

Amidst the turmoil, I attempted to check myself into a psych ward, only to find out I'm not crazy, just traumatized. I threw out my bed, many of my possessions, and lost some friends along the way.

With the help of my support system, mental health care, hope, & self-love I've gotten myself to a much better place. 

I can now confidently say that I am no longer a victim, I am a survivor. 

Along the way, I've had to challenge almost every value system I was raised with. I've had to confront my past, live in my present, and look towards a truthful future.

The truth really does set you free. And So many survivors have helped me grow as a person by sharing their truth. I'm so thankful for their strength.

DYLAN'S TRUTH is a platform I created to unearth the truth. This audio journal and my site DylanSalacia.me will serve as a means to doing just that. 

My life experiences have given me the ability to question the systems that oppress & confront what I call the 3 evils: White Supremacy, The Patriarchy & Capitalism. 

It's my hope that by sharing my story & working to expose the toxicity that holds us all back, we can grow together.

I invite you to join me on this collective journey of self-actualization!

Until next time, Dylan.
