The most neglected person in America is the black woman.’ HOWEVER, we STILL find a way to walk this earth with our heads held high. To my fellow QUEENS: I see you. I love you. I love US. 👑🖤✊🏾”

Growing up, especially in middle school, I was always so jealous of peers with finer, easier to manage hair types. Learning to love and appreciate my natural hair just happened last year! I want to establish confidence in Maddie now. I want her to understand that her blackness is unique and beautiful. She will celebrate her heritage daily, not just one month a year.”

Often times in my life I’ve walked through this world scared because of the color of my skin. Because of how people see me, what people think of me when they see my skin. Judging me, for a beautiful quality I was born with and not taking the chance to get to know me.
This, as well as many other factor has taught me to move in the world with light, grace and love to the best of my ability. I am powerful, beautiful and energetic and I choose to be nothing less than that.”
This year I found what it means to be me, I am becoming everything I am meant to be. ❤️
End of the year photoshoot to celebrate how far I’ve come! I’m almost 10 months on testosterone, I moved into a little place with my wonderful partner, and I’m a trans model represented by agencies who embrace who I am and support me! I’m proud of my journey, and hope I can continue on with my endeavors next year!

I’m all for the love and gratitude that we show one another on the 14th, but the love we show ourselves is top priority. Not to say that y’all can’t appreciate those roses or gross assorted chocolates that should’ve been banned a long time ago, but what are you doing for yourself? Take Me Day and intentionally go all out on showing yourself some gratitude and appreciation. @tomboyx is making it easier by having some of the most comfortable clothes for chilling and relaxing. They’re taking Me Day to the next level and I’m all for it.”
via @theworthway (IG) :: “Making more ME DAYS! This is #selfcare. I spent the last few years reflecting on what self-care was truly supposed to mean. From watching other insta-accounts I assumed it was manicures and yoga classes in retreats and other things I never had the time nor finances for. I felt so self-sacrificing, under-appreciated, and unsure of how to care for myself beyond survival. So I chose one thing. #comfort. For me that meant a close shave on the back of my head and even sideburns below fiery red hair. It meant lifting heavy weights and running long miles. It meant reading a book even if it takes me months to finish. It meant sneaking downstairs at 5:30 in the morning with cheap hair dye and a cup of coffee. And it meant @tomboyx Finding boxer briefs that fit, but still make me feel feminine and powerful changed my game. A comfy hoodie that expresses who I am, and keeps me warm. But most of all comfortable. My self care is comfort. Comfortable in my skin, and in so many ways that's freeing. I'm powerful, I am strong, I'm taking care of myself. Comfort is expressing that.”
via @reigningryan (IG) :: “It took a lot for me to learn to love the skin I’m in. I’ve had body image issues for as long as I can remember, and a common misconception is that transitioning solves those issues, but it doesn’t. Transitioning lessens dysphoria, that’s it. Regardless of how your body aligns with societal standards, there’ll always be someone who finds joy in pointing out flaws, and it takes time to learn the self-love necessary to keep the negativity at bay. Chasing perceived perfection is not only damaging, but nothing will make you love yourself if the foundation doesn’t start within. I’m proud to be in a place now where I not only accept the things that make me unique, but celebrate them. Sure, someone may think I look trans, but that doesn’t mean unattractive, less-than, or undesirable - and the idea that it does is toxic. The traits that may show my transness also show what I’ve been through and what I’ve overcome, and that is beautiful.”

I was told to not eat certain things, but those temptations were still in the house. Both friends and family gave me confusing comments like ‘you should eat more’ or ‘you don't need to eat that much.’ Words like skinny or fat were very triggering. -
Even today, these situations happen. But the difference is I accept myself for who I am! Those childhood opinions grow weaker and weaker every day. Some days might be rough, but in general, I love my body not just for the appearance, but also the strength! People don't always know your full story so try not to be too harsh with them or yourself. -
Just remember that everyone has a story that they don't speak about. It's okay if you don't know! But sometimes "compliments" surrounding weight can be hurtful. Everyone is built differently and we all need to learn to love those differences! 💙“
