After returning from filming Canada\u2019s Drag Race, my light felt dim. I struggled to bounce back and feel like my normal self, even while I was living my dream. I had tours in the works, big shows and announcements; all my dreams were coming true and that helped. <strong>Then lockdown happened<\/strong> and-being an anxiety ridden Virgo-I knew that an end was not likely close. I had to be realistic with my situation.\u00a0<\/p><p>My husband and I packed up, left our apartment in Toronto (where I had been for 10 years), and moved in with my family back in my childhood home. This arrangement was great at first! My family is really relaxed, it was almost summer time, and we had so much more space to live. The one thing that needed an adjustment was drag. I still wanted to continue to work and stay relevant, so I had to adapt. My original concept for keeping creative from home was to do an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/juiceboxxofficial\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram<\/a> live with a different drag artist every Friday. I would interview them while they taught me how to do their makeup. It went well and felt fulfilling and fun at first, but Instagram as a platform just didn\u2019t feel right for something like that. I ended up resenting getting into drag and dreading Fridays. That\u2019s how I knew it was time to find a new way of being creative.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1059ff5b elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"1059ff5b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"580\" height=\"387\" src=\"https:\/\/itgetsbettercanada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/JuiceBoxx_entrance3-1024x683.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-1084\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/itgetsbettercanada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/JuiceBoxx_entrance3-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/itgetsbettercanada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/JuiceBoxx_entrance3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/itgetsbettercanada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/JuiceBoxx_entrance3-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/itgetsbettercanada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/JuiceBoxx_entrance3-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/itgetsbettercanada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/JuiceBoxx_entrance3-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/itgetsbettercanada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/JuiceBoxx_entrance3-16x12.jpg 16w, https:\/\/itgetsbettercanada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/JuiceBoxx_entrance3-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/itgetsbettercanada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/JuiceBoxx_entrance3-1980x1320.jpg 1980w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2235c68d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2235c68d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Canada\u2019s Drag Race airing was fast approaching and with that, many digital drag gigs were popping up for the cast. We were given the task of creating digital performances and I was also in the process of saving as much money as I could. I was trying to better my craft while not spending all of my money on high quality equipment. So, with my family\u2019s help, we turned the garage into a studio. I would use my iPhone, a projector, and a ring light, with a white or a black sheet tacked up as a backdrop, to create as many digital drag performances as I could just to continue working and putting out content.\u00a0<\/p><p>The announcement of Canada\u2019s Drag race couldn\u2019t have come at a better time. It was incredible to receive that level of exposure and it was the only thing that kept me afloat throughout 2020. I am extremely privileged to have had the opportunity to be featured on that massive platform during such a hard time for my industry. It gave me the opportunity to actually make a good income and not have to rely on government assistance. I will always be extremely thankful for this. I received so much love for my time on the show and that softened the blow of having my experience not necessarily go the way I\u2019d hoped for.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-1f3a9847 elementor-section-content-middle elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"1f3a9847\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-background-overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-4435ecec\" data-id=\"4435ecec\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4c176bb3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"4c176bb3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">\"I started therapy and it was the best decision I\u2019ve ever made.

Things were really starting to look up! It also became safer to work outside my house. I was offered gigs and small tours, so I took the leap and started performing in person again (with some safety adjustments, of course). In hindsight, however, this wasn\u2019t the best decision for me. Despite the precautions, I was never comfortable at these gigs. It didn\u2019t feel right working when so many people couldn\u2019t. It also felt like, without trying to, I was putting other people and myself at risk. I\u2019m happy for the experiences I had but they helped me learn to make smarter decisions in the future.\u00a0<\/p><p>Then 2021 happened. We were in lockdown again and I stayed home for Christmas, but I was feeling so much more comfortable. We\u2019d gotten used to never leaving the house. We didn\u2019t really have to adjust to not seeing friends or family for the holidays because we hardly saw them anymore regardless. We had so much space and being new homeowners kept us busy. Despite that distraction, I still had that burden of feeling unhappy getting into drag. I struggled to find a good balance and make myself actually want to be in drag. Cameos, Tik Toks, and selfies are great but I didn\u2019t feel like I really had purpose. That\u2019s what finally made me decide to upgrade everything.
