👍🏼If you’re open to learning, I’m open to talking. I truly believe the path forward begins with listening, understanding, and connecting with those whose lived experiences may be different from our own. Let’s keep the conversation going.

#TransDayOfVisibility

💕We see you. We love you. We’re fighting alongside you for your right to live as your authentic, incredible selves.

💗As a proud parent of two LGBTQIA+ young adults—one nonbinary and one transgender—this is deeply personal for me.
