Welcome to the seventh episode of Poised and Petty!

Being visibly trans online comes with love, connection, community… and a whole lot of unwanted hate. In this episode of Poised & Petty, I’m opening up about what it’s really like to exist on the internet as a trans woman in 2025. From navigating transphobic comments to dealing with trolls, boundary-setting, digital self-care, and learning how to protect my mental health, I break down my entire system for handling online hate without losing myself.

I talk about the emotional impact of being trans online, how I respond to ignorance vs. hostility, the difference between educating and preserving your peace, and how blocking, muting, and curating your feeds can actually be acts of self-love. I also share the confidence tools that helped me build my identity, strengthen my voice, and stay grounded while transitioning publicly.

Whether you’re a trans person trying to survive social media, someone questioning your identity, or an ally wanting to understand what trans creators face every day, this episode offers practical advice, personal stories, and a lot of heart.

Topics include:
• Being trans online in 2025
• Handling transphobic hate comments
• Digital boundaries and mental health
• Building confidence as a trans woman
• How to respond to trolls (and when not to)
• Protecting your peace on social media
• Authenticity, self-love, and chosen community
• Advice for trans women, trans creators, and LGBTQ youth

If you want real talk, encouragement, and a reminder that your existence is powerful, valid, and worth celebrating, this episode is for you.
