Amid the turmoil, Chaz found solace in music, drawing strength from the poignant lyrics of R.E.M. and the emotional resonance of Tori Amos. Music became more than a passion—it was a lifeline that carried him through his darkest days. Alongside the healing power of music, Chaz found light in the form of friendships that blossomed into an unbreakable family of choice.
