“[My] 20′s were really, really fun, but I also sort of equate my 20′s to … walking into a costume shop, and trying on all these different costumes. And then like, walking out of the costume shop— in my regular outfit— and being like, ‘I’m cool with who I am.’ … one thing going into my 30′s that I’m really stoked about is [that] I now can really recognize and diagnose toxic messages being sent to me by society, by culture, about like, my body … I’m a woman, I’m not a coat hanger. I need to feel healthy in my life, and I need to take pleasure in food, and I need to not use my body as like, an exercise of control when I feel out of control in my life.” ✧・゚: *✧・゚:・✧* :゚・✧
