Yvy grew up believing in who she was, but what she didn’t know was how to live her truth. Trapped in a body that presented as male, Yvy had no choice but to take on life’s obstacles whilst attempting to desperately find the answer to living her truth. And so her journey begins. Yvy embarked towards uncharted territory, knowing that she would inevitably reach her truth and live as an authentic creation. But what she wasn’t prepared for was the lessons she would learn along the way. Lessons that would shape her gender identity and give her the confidence to be unapologetic when it comes to being who she was born to be. Tainted Beauty is a heartfelt, sexy and hilarious no-holds-barred look into the life of a woman who isn’t afraid to tell it like it is.
I loved this so much - heartfelt, honest, funny, compassionate and left me close to tears on more than one occasion. I can only imagine what Yvy went through and there are many lessons to learn within the book itself - we all need to educate ourselves better, we need to judge and discriminate less, and we need to let people be who they want to be.
Thank you for sharing your inspirational story with us.
An open, honest and beautiful account of her young life. I’ve managed to laugh, blush & shed a small tear through this roller coaster ride of emotion. Thank you Yvy for sharing your story.....shine bright!!
