About Us
House of Belonging began with one simple truth:
Everyone deserves to feel safe, seen, and celebrated.
Born from my own journey through performance, parenthood, and survival, this space is a love letter to visibility, protection, and care. What started in glitter and stage lights became something quieter — but just as bold. A signal. A gesture. A way to say: you’re not alone.
We create visible signals of care — designs that speak loudly, laugh freely, and protect fiercely.
And just as importantly, we create messages of power — statements of self-worth, strength, and truth. These pieces are reminders that you can take up space. That you are allowed to be whole, unapologetic, and seen.
This isn’t just apparel. It’s resistance. It’s survival. It’s softness that stands its ground.
These pieces are for anyone who wants to show up with love.
For anyone who’s ever looked for a sign that says, “You’re safe here.”
For anyone reclaiming their voice — and choosing to wear it proudly.
Whether you're wearing your truth, offering someone else a lifeline, or both at once, these designs are made to stand with you.
Meet Nadine DuBois — my longtime stage persona and a voice of unapologetic love. She has helped me shine louder, love bigger, and hold fast to joy, even in the hardest moments.
Now, House of Belonging is how I do that offstage, too.
Same heart. New form.
Still here. Still rising.
This is a queer-owned business — built on lived experience, bold visibility, and a commitment to protection, empowerment, and care. For anyone who's been hidden, silenced, or asked to shrink — this is your invitation to take up space.
Welcome to the House.
You belong.
