I suppose you have been wondering where I have been hiding? This year has just flown by for me and I am sure it is the same for you. Firstly I would like to welcome you to our new format of T-Girls Tips. The start of this year has been incredibly busy for me both personally and professionally. My life has been an amazing journey and I am so often asked “How did I come to do, what I do?” Well, I thought today maybe a good time to tell my story. It is reasonably rare that you have a profession as a “femininity coach”. Where did it all start?

Where Did It All Start

It all started several years ago when I started to research the TG community sometime after that I completed a diploma in Colour and Style. I have always had a passion for helping others and I decided that the TG community could use my skills and services by this time I had already been working with several TG women. I found this to be so rewarding and found my niche, I feel very passionate and purposeful about what I could offer these women. It has been a lifelong mission for me to help women see their value. This need is amplified within the TG community.

Becoming The Femininity Coach

I also knew that I could take advantage of the qualifications I had gained as a results coach and NLP practitioner along with my 27 years in the cosmetic industry. It seemed I had the perfect mix to become a “Femininity Coach” my passion grows on a daily basis and I have been so blessed by the wonderful women who have come in to my life to support both personally and professionally.

5,000 TG Women At Our FaceBook Fan Page

When we started “The Femininity Coach” we had nine TG women in our data base, today we are nudging 1,000 we have a FaceBook Fan Page that has reached almost 5,000. I am often overwhelmed by the emails that I receive and feel honoured to be part of your journey. Having worked with so many girls both through the internet and face to face I believe I have an understanding that very few genetic women will ever have and through this understanding I can facilitate the transformations required for my clients to become a “natural looking women”.

The T-Girls Transformation Program

There is so much more involved than putting on a dress and make up as you know only too well. I understand the journey that you go on and the pain, suffering and ridicule that you are subjected to. Understanding all of this makes me more determined to make a difference and support you. Recently I developed a T-Girls Transformation program that will teach you some basic fundamentals in feminization, this program is tailored to the TG community and offers some basic understanding on skin care make-up and grooming. Our next step is to provide you with much needed information that will help you on your path whether you are a beginner or more advanced, the most important key here is to save you hours and hours on the internet and have all the information you need to support you in one spot.

Tools To Give You Confidence

I am so excited about what we have in store for you over the coming months, at the end of the day what I am aiming to is to support you and provide the tools to give you confidence, dignity and hope.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your contribution to “The Femininity Coach” I look forward to taking the next step with you.

Amazing Transgender Children

Recently there has been so much awareness around the TRANSGENDER COMMUNITY and many documentary shows highlighting the challenges that TG women face. Today I was to share a couple of videos that are about TRANSGENDER CHILDREN. It will be a delight to see these kids grow up in a positive and supportive environment. Acceptance is such A BIG CHALLENGE for so many, thank goodness there are support services, both on and off line that offer amazing help and resources to the TG community.

5 Minutes With Miss Bri’Anna Francissica Webster

Julie: Tell us about Bri’Anna

Bri’Anna: Where to begin:

My name is Bri’Anna Francissica Webster and I am a preoperative male to female transgender who started her journey on May 6th, 2006. My name was officially changed on May 8th, 2008 and I started Gender Therapy on June 18th, 2008. I have been having many problems and frustrations on finding adequate employment as a full time transgendered Lady. I did market research for about 3 years and finally decided to open up a High Fashion Clothing Boutique that carries everything from wigs, makeup, perfumes, hoisery, furs, jewelry, and high fashion designer items such as Christian Louboutin and Jimmy Choo.

I am 38 years old and the main reason for me opening an online clothing boutique is due to there are not that many stores that specialize in high fashion clothing and accessories for the alternative lifestyle and trying to find heels, boots, and shoes in larger sizes are very rare to find. Also since I was not able to find adequate employment to save money for my SRS (sexual reassignment surgery). I needed to do something to help raise money for my SRS and have a future income.

Many Blessings and Respects,
Miss Bri’Anna Francissica Webster
CEO of hiddencloset.org

Julie: What has been the biggest challenge for you so far?

Bri’Anna: My biggest challenge was dealing with my gender issues and finding adequate employment to pay for my sexual reassignment surgery.

Julie: If you had to start over again, what would you do differently?

Bri’Anna: If I had to start all over again I would make sure that I received the proper medical help with my gender identity and prepare myself for having my SRS at the age of 16.

Julie: Who do you admire and why?

Bri’Anna: I admire people that are open minded without regards to sexual orientation as well as those who support someone who are going through the transition of male to female and or female to male that are willing to help those that need emotional support, mental support as well as being treated and respected as they should.

Julie: It takes courage and determination to step out, what tips can you share and what is your motivator?

Bri’Anna: It does take a lot of courage to step out for it is not an easy journey to go through. The tips that I can give to anyone would be

1. talk with a Gender Therapist about gender identity
2. start doing research on Transgenderism and really take heed to what is expected
3. contact a primary physician for HRT as well as consult with an SRS Surgeon. An SRS Surgeon can tell you how to get started on your transitional journey.

Julie: What are your 3 biggest success tips?

Bri’Anna: My three biggest successes are as follows:

1. 3 time published poet,
2. growing up in a professional business family, and
3. having an open mind and not giving up on your dreams.
