30. 🥳🎂🎈✨ It’s #TransAwarenessWeek, which has always left me with complicated feelings. Awareness is far from enough when trans people are dying, both at the hands of others and by their own.

So grateful for the support that’s allowed me to get to this point in my life. 🪴 I feel stronger every single day.
