random special episode today. i get lots of comments & DMs on my tiktok/instagram (@claire_holt12 btw) about confidence as a masc lesbian & honestly this is one of my favorite things to talk about because my confidence used to be DOWNNNNNNN SO LOWWWWWW and now it has transformed completely. it takes guts to walk around wearing guy clothes and being out and proud and it didn't come easy so i have some pointers and also just big sister advice here.
if you're watching this and have struggled with confidence please know - IT GETS BETTER! so much better oh my GODDDD! hang in there.
