10:57 - I've been on HRT for almost a week, and my chest is growing, but there's some shrinking I'm not comfortable with. In your experience, does the D shrink or the B's? I got told that it would be the testes, but it's not the case for me, so how is it for you?

🗣 - "I don’t want to get political. I don’t wake up and say, “I’m gonna get political today.” Like, that’s not my goal. But I know that if I want to have a life, I have to fight for my life. Who says that? Ask yourself! How many of you watch this right now and know that you have to fight for your life when you wake up? Your right to live, your right to employment, your right to safety, your right to dignity. How many people wake up and tell themselves those are things they need to do today. And I don’t even do that for myself. I do that for other people. I do that for the kids."

#Letters4TransKids - "You Know Who You Are!"

🗣 - “I want you to be fully you, whoever that turns out to be. And it’s okay if it takes time to figure it out. That’s part of what being a kid is supposed to be all about—figuring out who you are.” - Ina Fried

‼️ - #Letters4TransKids

#Letters4TransKids is a social media campaign started by Ina Fried to support trans kids targeted by legislative attacks. Provide encouragement, support & comfort to #trans youth in the face of anti-trans legislation! 

If you can say #BlackLivesMatter, if you can say #EveryChildMatters, if you denounce anti-Asian racism, if you can #StandWithUkraine, if you are left-handed:

Then, you can support trans kids. This needs you to act right now.

Feedback I have received includes:

• “Wow, you are yelling. Depends on your goal but some ppl might not make it through. Darkside INFJ going full ESTP 😛”
• “And you may have just inspired someone to stand up for themselves as your anger gives them permission to feel it too.”

The anger is real. Kids are under attack, and too many people are not speaking up!

Please hear the message. Please share yours when you're done. #Letters4TransKids

On Hallway Conference, and in observance of #TransDayofVisibility, Carrie Simpson from Managed Sales Pros spoke with me about creating safe spaces for everyone at events and conferences!

I'm grateful to have had the opportunity to share time with her to discuss creating inclusive events, especially on an important day like #TDOV. Please enjoy the episode, like it and share it on your socials, so others can have an opportunity to watch it too!

(Subscribe to MSP's channel while you're there - Carrie's got some great sales & marketing content to enjoy!)

🗣 - "I hope you'll take some time to listen. We can all use our influence to encourage event organizers to consider inclusion & safety when planning events. No one should have to choose between their safety or mental health & pursuing career opportunities." - Carrie Simpson
