“In a world that pulls us from every direction, one that asks for only parts of us and not the whole, self determination becomes survival.” @mimivirusofficial writes in this short essay about her personal journey with self determination as a trans woman in this world and what freedom means to her. Mimi is my sister and best friend and is a huge influence on all aspects of my life. Whether it’s her perspective on the world, music, fashion etc. I can always count on Mimi to be a source of inspiration. If you ask me who my biggest influences are, Mimi would be one of the first people to come to mind. I don’t know where I’d be without her always pushing my mind to think differently. Mimi is a force of fashion in her own right, so I’m extremely humbled to say that I styled her today. I love you Mimi ❤️ Go listen to her debut EP Tranimalia, now on all platforms!!!
