I was very hesitant to post this. I think this is the most honest thing I’ve ever put out into the world which makes me pee myself a little bit but also makes me feel very free. This video is how I’m saying goodbye to that chapter of my life. It’s hard to be honest and vulnerable. I knew there would be backlash and judgment and not everyone would understand- but it’s not about creating a message that resonates with everyone, it’s about sharing my story in hopes someone feels less alone in theirs. There's so much more I could have said and ways I could have condensed, improved, and perfected this video but I like how messy and scattered and raw and authentic it is. Of course I recognize my opinion and perspective will change, but as of today, on some day in June 2023, this is what I have to say. So here is my messy, real, imperfect, ugly crying and screaming self - she’s not for everyone but she is for me. Also - Thank you, all one million of you (!!!), for the last 3 years of my life. You’ve taught me so much and have truly changed my life. I’m honored to be a part of your journey, and so grateful that you’re a part of mine. I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.
