Tess Holliday Instagram – THIRTY ATE!!!! 💁🏻‍♀️ Today is my birthday y’all!! I feel so honored & grateful to celebrate 3️⃣8️⃣ 🥳 😱I spoke at the @unitednations ! 😱I helped @hm expand their sizes to 4x in the US !! 😱I became an ordained minister & married two of my favorite humans, my family @ponyboy.us @parishelena 🥹 😱I launched my Self Love Workshop which was years in the making! 😱I got divorced! There were SO many personal victories, & wins for the Plus Size community that I’m so honored to have been a part of. I celebrated 6 years with my amazing team @intention.team @livpeeke & am forever grateful they believe in what I’m doing more than ever! I love y’all💕 37 was also the year I said goodbye to our sister @evilpork666 a week after my birthday last year. I’m not going to lie, most of the past year was spent deeply mourning, & trying to remind myself to keep going. The gift I gained from such a tremendous loss was that life is too short to spend energy or time doing anything that doesn’t bring me joy. Time is so precious & I’ve spent so much of it worried about how people viewed me, when I could’ve spent it looking around at the love I’ve cultivated in my life & being fully present in what I’ve built. You get what you put into things, & I’ve really learned how to make some damn good lemonade 😂😉 38 is going to be such a beautiful year & the season I fully get out of my own way, out of my head & start living. I’M GONNA REALLY BE OUTSIDE! To all of you: I love you I love you I love you. If it wasn’t for each & everyone of you I wouldn’t have my beautiful life. I can’t thank you enough for being part of my journey (new & true!) & I’m so grateful to everyone who made my year so special! 💕♋️💘 If you’re out in West Hollywood tonight, don’t be shy, gimme a big gay bday hug! 🥳💕💘💕💘💕 #birthdaygirl #cancerszn #comeonbarbieletsgoparty
