And if I, through my screen or wherever it is that I'm connecting with people, can show that and can also almost be like a bit of like a maternal energy to maybe people that don't have that or are lacking that. I need to lean into that. And so it was very healing when I went and did that. And actually, I guess I'll just say on this pod, like Ted Cruz appeared to me in an ayahuasca.

I think I'm the only trans woman who's done ayahuasca that has had Ted Cruz appear to her while she's in Peru. And I remember being like, what the fuck are you doing here? And this mother ayahuasca was basically like, these people, someone like this person, lacks true unconditional love and, like, a mother's love and what that really looks like. And so... do not fight fire with fire.

That was what's also tricky is like, there's been a few times where I've done some like little backhand, you know, trying to kind of poke the bear and get back at them. And people love that because they love to see the rise. They want to see me a little angry. They want to know that it affects me in some way. Even if I'm coming at it with still with humor and love, but it's still poking.

And it was like, don't go that direction. Try to just carry... I think the best weapon I have is my trans joy. And the more I can win, and the more that I can show and share my wins, the more that... they lose because their whole goal is for someone like me to not be able to have wins and to feel a lack of joy.

And that's why when I think of like allyship, I think if there's any world in which you could help a trans or a queer person win right now, whatever that might look like, whatever platform big or small that might be, that's the way that we witness is through helping,

I think I now, because of my actions of going online, sharing my identity in this way, I have a responsibility to educate myself as much as I can. Because then when I am on a platform or doing an interview, writing a book, I now need to have put in a certain level of effort.

I'm getting much better too at understanding if something's above my area of expertise of being able to throw that to someone else. I write about in the book too, going to the White House and interviewing the president. What the hell? That was not my gig. How did that happen? And I now wouldn't take that gig, but early on enough, I thought that I was supposed to.

But sometimes I think about having... had none of this happened, had I not put that video up there that first day, I was about to like apply to my local bookstore, Book Soup in West Hollywood as like a sales associate. And I sometimes like fantasize about, oh, what would it have looked like that way had I kept it all to myself? And I don't want to go there because that is ultimately regret.
