    I spent years and years putting in conscious effort to get to a place where I can accept myself as I am. It’s a journey that has been very worthwhile.

    It’s a crazy journey going from self-loathing to the point where now I check myself out in the mirror. I even used to hate my name, but now I slap that shit on everything, and don’t even abbreviate in a professional environment.

    Took a lot of years and a lot of work, but definitely worth it.
