So, let’s keep it simple to start.

How have you been? Where are you in your journey?

I’ve been on an emotional rollercoaster of sorts for a while but we won’t get into that.

I’ve just hit 6mo on HRT and last week I learned…

drumroll please

I finally love myself! Something that has taken me 30 years to learn to do. And that final piece of the puzzle was to embrace myself as Olivia ❤️

So, how have you been? What’s on your mind?

I’ve not been good, I haven’t gotten a referral yet and from the looks of it I won’t get HRT any time soon. Every day that passes life seems bleaker and the small bit of light only seems to get dimmer.

Keep walking towards that bit of light. Even if it feels like it’s getting further away.

One small baby step at a time.

You’ll get there and I’m sorry you’re not where you want to be yet ❤️
