Nice to have a genuine smile sometimes. Sharing my honest thoughts with people after years of just putting on a fake smile and nodding to keep everyone happy takes too much.

Today I battled so much negative self talk I started to actually believe in myself. Maybe I can actually do this. Kinda cool to think for the first time. When your naturally state is to defend people’s desire to box you in, actually validating yourself is the most powerful tool.

Hi, I’m L. This is me, messy on my floor after a shitty year watching everything fall apart. I’ve been told everything about me is too much, that I’m a problem for being vulnerable, for being myself. I’m ready to restart, ready to be heard, ready to show up as the unapologetic, authentic trans me.
