    As someone who is a silent watcher, I appreciate your honesty and story. As a woman who had her own sexuality awakening around the same time in life, it’s hard, confronting & scary as hell, but so, so worth it for the life you get once your through it.
    Also, side note, we all need a Soph in life. The friendship she has given you, the comfort to be yourself to you find yourself, is beautiful ❣️

    I know you think coming out is kind of a whatever thing, but truly I commend you for being brave. Especially coming from a religious background, it must have been so hard to leave something you’ve known for o long so I applaud you ❤️

    Love this Georgia!! Honestly, you can really see the shift in your energy, almost like a breath of fresh air. It really feels like you’ve stepped into yourself, you explained it perfectly- previously you were like a shell of yourself. I’ve lovedddd watching your growth so far ❤️❤️

    Proud of you for sharing your coming out journey. It isn't easy to come to terms with it in general but especially when you have religious family. A group of my family are homophobic and if they don't accept me then they don't get to be in my life it's that simple. But it's really surprising those who are religious who totally accept you. Giving people the benefit of the doubt until they prove you wrong it key.

    this was such a lovely listen, NGL as soon as Georgia started saying she was working through things and trying to figure out who she was in vlogs I was like oh Georgia's gay lol. Georgia it's been great to see you blossom and become who you really are, you look so happy!

    Hey G, this video is very special to me and I'm so proud of you for your journey. As a young queer teenager, who also came from a very religious background with parents voting no for same-sex marriage, this means a lot to hear my favourite TH-camr discussing the same things I'm still struggling with. You are truly a role model to me and I hope to meet you one day ♥

    I know this is from 2 weeks ago but I can relate strongly to coming out. I remember reading something about alot of lesboans only having male celeb crushes but then being grossed out by dating men, not being able to see yourself marrying a man and it was like wow. I had thought it was something every woman went through going on dates and just never being happy no matter how great the guy was, being told my expectations were unattainable because in reality I just didnt want to date men.

    I genuinely don’t think I have ever related to someone so much. I stayed in the closet for so long because of others and fear of not pleasing people. I spend the first 24 years of my life people pleasing before I came out and now 6 years on life is so different lol also being gay is so fun. Women are the best

  • @daniellewelsh5184
    @daniellewelsh5184 ปีที่แล้ว

    So proud of how courageous you are Georgia by living out who you truly are. As someone who was also raised religious, you coming out online and sharing your experience has helped me give myself permission to explore my sexuality. So thank you, so much

It’s hurts that I live in WA, I wish I could be your and Sophs bestie 🥺💓🌈 Keep being you girl, this isn’t just another version of Georgia, this is the real Georgia and I am absolutely here for it.

    I have been watching you for about a year and was so happy to find your channel. You’ve been a great fitness inspiration to me! I’m so proud of you for embracing the opportunity of following your journey even when it was scary. ❤ As a religious person myself, just know you are not judged from all religious people and you are truly accepted as you are in that space. ❤

    I've been watching your channel for a couple of years now, and it's been really amazing watching you become more confident in your videos!💜
    I felt this chat on so many levels! I moved away from the city I grew up in too, and that did wonders for my mental health when it came to figuring out my sexuality. Sometimes we have to put a bit of distance between ourselves and the people we grew up with to gain perspective. Also, as an avid reader, queer books really do hit different. If you're looking for more queer stories, you might have more luck with indie authors. I think traditional publishing is starting to catch up, but the progress is slow.

    I personally came out at 17 and it's the hardest thing to ever have to do! Im engaged with a baby to a man now, so just a reminder it's ok to just love who you love even if it's not your 'title'

  • @taylalouisearmstrong2528
    @taylalouisearmstrong2528 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I think it's very true when you grow up in the church (at least for me) you have this idea of what you should be or what your life should look like. Like I remember being in the church and everyone started to get married young... I really thought that was going to be me and when it didn't happen I felt an intense amount of guilt and like disappointment in myself because I wondered why nobody wanted me and I felt like I wasn't good enough. But I think now that I'm older I started to think did I REALLY want that or was that just what I was TAUGHT to want? I always felt very different to all the other girls at church in the way that I wasn't so conservative I guess? Like I still wanted to go out with my "not christian" friends on the weekends and drink and party and whatever.. but when I tried to invite girls from church to come hang out with me and my other friends on the weekend they were like "oh we don't do that". I always found that really strange... there was like this perceived notion on how a girl or woman was "supposed to be" especially in the church; how they were supposed to act, what they were supposed to do and essentially who they were supposed to be. So when I didn't get married young like everyone else, I felt very much like an outcast.. like I wasn't one of them anymore when in reality I don't ever really think I was. I think I was just being "me". Whatever that was at time. But I agree trying to figure out who you are when you have been taught one thing and grown up in one thing and basically been indoctrinated from such a young age it makes it really hard.. But at the end of the day you have to decide who you're going to be despite everything because you're the one who has to live with yourself and your decisions. Like I still call myself a Christian and I am one. But I think I have grown to learn that, that doesn't mean I have to be like every other Christian in the world. I can still just be me and be a Christian too. So here's to being the most "non-christian christian" you'll probably ever meet ahaha. Thank you for sharing your story

    Georgia, I know over many years, yourself and Rachel have been besty’s. Rachel, being a strong Christian/believer. How has she taken it after you have come out? Also you leaving the church? Has Rachel been supportive?

  • @briseyda539
    @briseyda539 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I remember in a blog with you and Rachel and you saying you wanting like “10 kids right after you got married” and seeing that slight energy of like a baby gay in the making. So happy for you, we love you here 💕

    Listening to this was so wild cause it feels like we had almost the exact same experience, I relate to you immensely and watching you go through the same things is so crazy but amazing! The actual confidence that comes from finally being your genuine self is like nothing I have ever felt ever! I’m so happy for you and honestly hope I have the opportunity to meet with you one day! Think we would be pals 💃🏼

  • @AshleyJade18

    I absolutely LOVE watching people as they begin to realise who they truly are.. I love seeing each 'ah ha' moment happen.. I would consider myself to be A-Sexual with a friend-attraction towards gay women (and my gaydar that is never broken 😆) apparently because for the last 20 years (i've had the same core friend group since i was 15), 95% of my friend group are lesbian or (Now) transgender and watching each one of them grow individually has been amazing.... Thanks for sharing, i am happy for you. 💖

    Georgia the one thing I would like to say is that regardless of what anyone tells you, God loves each and every human period. It is we, the humans that have difficulty when someone doesn’t conform to our idea of what is acceptable or normal to them. That said I hope that you don’t feel that you can’t have a relationship with God bc you realized that you like females. You’re still you. However, loving yourself is really important, especially knowing that you should be loved as well.

    • @natalielindsey7732
      @natalielindsey7732 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You said this so well! Absolutely, she can still have a relationship with Jesus. He is the only way to find pure bliss in this crazy world.

    • @Em12312
      @Em12312 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      This isnt hate, the Bible speaks on loving the people but hating the sin. I love Georgia, I love all people but I cannot lie and say continue in sin which the Bible says homosexuality is but also lying, murder, adultery and all the others. If someone was a thief everyday of their lives stealing small or large things, I cannot stand there and say “keep doing you!” Because I care about you. I love Georgia so much I hope she turns to the Lord and repent and ask to give her a new heart and new desires. God is bigger than any struggle. We cannot make a false idol that suits our sinful lifestyle. We have to believe in the TRUTH❤️ I love you Georgia, Jesus will be knocking at the door of your heart at any point you feel tugged to turn to him.

You sharing your story has helped me to come to terms with my sexuality and identity so much more, and it is so helpful to have someone like you that I can look up to. You’ve helped me to love myself again. I’m really rooting for you to find your dream gal 🫶🏼🫶🏼

    First off, I am so incredibly happy for you. I have a very similar story to you, raised in the church, gay was sin, purity, culture, all of it. Im gay, only out to my husband and only after I was married. So it’s a little bit complicated but not the point lol.
    I just have a genuine question about leaving the church. Did the two coincide for you? Like, did you leave the church because you came out and you felt like it wasn’t safe or acceptable? Or were they kind of separate, like you were having doubts about Christianity as well regardless of the coming out. Or was it a combo or something else.
    So much love to you!!!! ❤❤❤ ☀️
