CrossFit Optimistic celebrates Pride Month! Coach Forrest talks with Abby aka Horse Whisperer and India aka “Tickle” about what pride means to them, their coming out stories, and advice they’d give to their younger selves.

Im Nat Head Coach. I was born in Mexico City. I’m a pansexual woman in a equal sex marriage.
But when I tried to think what (other than a large number of queers of so many flavors) makes CSFV so special, it dawned on me that this is one of the few places where I just get to be me. I’m not a minority, I’m not a hilarious accent, I’m not “gay” I’m actually quite “average”. I fit right in.
It’s not an accident that so many of our members are in one way or another marginalized: not only LGBTQ, but immigrants, lower income, or different in some c
