For years, I struggled to understand what felt different about me, why I didn’t seem to move through the world like others, especially other girls. As a therapist, I’ve devoted my career to helping others reconnect with their most authentic selves, guiding them toward healing, and holding space for transformation. Through that work, I came to realize that I, too, was being invited to return home to myself and that I wasn’t fully at peace in my own body. Now, I’m ready to take the next step in that journey through gender affirmation surgery (top surgery).

As a healthcare professional, it’s been one of my greatest honors to support my trans sibs and community members by writing affirmation letters, encouraging rest and self-compassion, and witnessing the courage it takes to live authentically. This time, I’m asking for that same compassion and support for myself.

The funds raised here will help cover the cost of my surgery and living expenses during recovery, allowing me the time and space to heal fully. Every contribution, no matter the amount, helps lift a weight off my shoulders and brings me one step closer to feeling at home in my body. ❤️‍

Thank you for reading, for sharing, and for walking alongside me in this deeply meaningful moment. I look forward to sharing updates throughout recovery with gratitude and love.
