Yesterday was the first time I had gone to my major client since I started full time work fem. So I would be meeting many that had only seen me as male. Surprisingly I was actually looking forward to it as I have huge confidence at the moment with all the acceptance elsewhere.

I was late arriving, accident on the M4 (again) so initially just met the tech director who was the first I told I was trans and has supported me throughout. He commented at the end of the meeting that I was looking good. The it guy came in during the meeting and got from him Hi Jessica, then it was down to the reception to grab a coffee before leaving and chatted with the receptionist. She knew as everyone there that I was wearing a wig after all this is a place that has known me for years and she asked is that real hair? Can I feel it? It looks so real.

I left so happy. It is wonderful being me at last

Awesome day!  Maybe the world is starting to be more accepting.   Glad to hear about your good day.  Keep us posted.

That is great to find acceptance at work! 

Very nice !! Indeed working as yourself is such an empowering feeling. The feed back I receive at work on a routine basis is quite validating and makes it so worth it ! I wish you continued success at your place of business....

Best

Dear Jessica:
Thank you for sharing your positive, uplifting, and affirming report about being "out" on your job. 
Yes indeed, being "yourself" at work, and everywhere that you go, is such a big confidence booster and feels to liberating.

Again, thank you for sharing with all of us.
Hugs and best wishes as always,
Danielle
