This picture makes me ridiculously happy. I took it last night when @ladyharrietrose did my shot for me like she has done since we moved in together. I love that my girlfriend wants to be so involved in my transition, from doing my shots to massaging my scars to researching all the little things to do with transguys and their transitions just so she can understand what's going on in my head and in my future. She makes this all just a little bit easier to deal with and I'm so glad I've got her to stab me in the leg once a month with a really sharp needle 👌❤ #soppypost #transition #transgender #transguy #transman #ftm #femaletomale #testosterone #VitaminT #hormones #injection #intramuscular #transguysofig #love #relationship #couple #goals #thisiswhattranslookslike

Never have I ever been prouder than what I am right now of what @rachel_rocks628 has done over the past week......Could not imagine going through what she has but yet here we are out the other side of a spinal fusion surgery and she has came through it like a trooper! Strongest, bravest person I know, and she would show anyone a thing or two about will power. Safe to say she may be my little sister but I look up to her. Now @taylorswift let's be having the Reputation tour Dublin because WE ARE READY FOR IT #reputationtour #reputation #taylorswift #soppypost #dontcare #spinalFusion #scoliosiswarrior #yeooooo #OnthehomeStraight

Long post alert..so as many of you know yesterday I turned the big “40” which seemed ancient in my parents time 🤣 & this picture depicts how the feeling was for me-Windswept & that I have been hammered from all angles! The last few months have really taken their toll on me & I am not the bubbly, energetic, happy person I was before I was knocked down by this virus & the complications that have gone with it. This is certainly not how I thought I would enter my 40’s! But it has taught me some valuable lessons. 1. Never take your health for granted as it can be taken away in a heartbeat & you can be left with nothing. 2. Appreciate the little things that can bring so much joy & remind yourself daily that it is a blessing if you wake up feeling good. 3. Little things like a simple message from someone just to say they care & are thinking of you when you are at your worst does wonders for the soul-appreciate those people however random they may be as they will always have your back & those people are worth hanging on to. Sometimes the best friendships are born out of hardships & great friendships are lost too. 4. Sometimes you can’t fight back & you have to be at peace with the situation & just stay positive that it is going to get better. 5. Don’t be too proud to ask for help-we all need it at some point. 6. Always remember that as low as you may feel & as debilitated & in pain you are there are people out there who have suffered worse & come out the other side. 7. Tell people you love & appreciate them everyday! We all have our struggles, some are mental & some are physical but never lose hope that it will eventually change & there is a light at the end of the dark tunnel . I am writing this today because yesterday was a good day & some of the messages I received from friends/colleagues &clients blew me away & I felt stronger yesterday but today is a bad day & I cannot get out of bed...so take each day as it comes and be grateful for the little wins..things can only get better 💕 #soppypost #turning40 #40 #lifelessons #lifelessonslearned #donttakethingsforgranted #begrateful #begratefuleveryday #blessed https://www.instagram.com/p/B5E5tZPneN_/?igshid=4twsouzd9z8u

It has been 16(ish) years since this photo was taken and in that time my little cousin @kiraellisx has turned into a smart, kind and strong young woman. She is the sister I never had and I could not be more proud of her... happy birthday Kira ^_^ hope you have a good weekend :-) #birthdaypost #happbirthday #soppypost https://www.instagram.com/p/BpK4DzClxJL/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=h8h4wiaftpsn

Let’s throw it all the way back to 8 years ago! I surprised my mum for her birthday with a photo shoot, I booked her this photoshoot because she hated having her photo taken. The photographer was a good friend of mine so my mum ended up being super comfortable and really enjoying it! I had been modelling for a while at this point and felt good in front of a camera, even with that drastic hair 😂 I mean, come on Danika! Modelling is something I could have never imagined going back to, I used to love it, it made me feel free but I never truly saw a world where in which I’d succeed and get recognised properly because I was classed as plus size and I was a size 10/12 at the time but I feel encouraged recently at the diversity, the inclusivity, the body positivity, the fat positivity, the acceptance that all bodies are good bodies! Maybe there will be a place for me as a fat disabled model one day. There’s still a long way to go but the small steps being made really do count! My mum is beautiful, truly but she’s suffered at the hands of societal beauty standards Her weight has fluctuated up and down just like mine And the way she has hated on herself for it, makes me sad I want my mum to know that her body has done incredibly amazing things, her body was home to me and my brother! Her beauty shines from inside to out, her caring nature makes me feel less alone and less afraid of the world I love our silly selfies, I love that you’re more comfortable being in front of the camera Beauty has no limits, there’s no set way to look to be beautiful We are all beautiful, we are all love, we are all light, we are all human 💖 #soppypost #dearmum #bodylove #bodyconfidence #model #beauty #effyourbeautystandards #societalbeautystandards #dietculturesucks #dietculturedropout #fuckyourbeautystandards #bodyhappy #honourmycurves #ilovemymum (at Scarborough, North Yorkshire)
