I really liked it that Ivy spoke about how the women’s movement and the trans rights movement have similar goals and are intertwined. I think so many people attempt to set the two movements against each other, and I love the calm and rational and sweet way she made that point. I love both of you, and I think you make a wonderful team. You’re good complements to each other; you bring out one another’s brightness and beauty.
Nothing in common. Trans movement for a child is encouraging mental illness. Imbsorry, there are so many that regret this decision that is life altering. Social pressures from the insane fringe has taken over by shaming people to stop and deny all common sense. This can have devastating consequences.
@@gabrielleferris952 and this boy is a child who received no help for him to stay healthy mentally as who he is (which is a boy). Smh. What in tarnation is the world coming to when the parents won't even stand for normalcy.
What a pair❣️ As a 71 year old woman whose brother came out in 1975 it makes me happy that the movement continues 👏🏽. Not only that but it has been more inclusive and able to change. Peace, light, and Love ❤️ to you both.
I loved how your heads were connected all the time moving to the the other one. That gesture said e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g!!!! How you shared your thoughts, feelings, struggles and decisions is something so powerful and brave. Love won! I hope the same for all the families that have similar stories and the whole society. We need more respect and patience to accept our differences.
I love that Carla and Ivy spoke about how this is a process that is ongoing and the most important thing is to work towards acceptance and support. This is important for people to understand that there are difficult moments (ie: changing Nate to Ivy on the phone) and to think through thoughts before verbalizing. I understand the fear of worrying about what difficulties Ivy may face because I have a 38 yr daughter with a developmental disability and I am always in varying states of worry. Thank you both for speaking out and helping other's. P.S. Ivy, I would raid mom's closet too!
I love the acknowledgment of a family transition. Whether you have a supportive family or you make your own, it's something that I feel you go through together and are stronger and more connected through it. Such wonderful positive messages here that can also be applied to other situations in life. Carla is such a positive influence in many aspects and has helped me to embrace celebrating myself through fashion and this is just another testament of how amazing she is. Love you Carla and Ivy! ❤️
Thank you, Ivy and Carla, for sharing your journey with us. My daughter started her transition a few years ago and is continuing to grow and blossom. Love to you both. 🏳⚧💜
Goodness Carla, I did not think it was possible to love and admire you more than I already did, but, I was wrong. BRAVO to both of you: your eloquence, love, genuine courage are inspiring!!! Thank you for sharing your journey, and I must say I LOVE IVY’s CURLY LOCKS!!! Y’all are beautiful, in and out!!!
You are a amazing loving gorgeous momma,with a beautiful child. The only thing important is family.♡ Live,laugh & Love♡ !! God bless you guys! ♡ I love you guys!😘💃🙏
I hate to speak for all of us but I have found that the closet is often the place where so many of us women first find ourselves. Its where we process our bodies, come to find our style, practice what we are going to say and how we are going to say it in the mirror...I think it's only fitting thats where the journey began! Thank you both for sharing your journey! It's not something that everyone has the opportunity to do and the fact that you're both so generous to share your individual experiences is such a push of positivity into the world. All youth need the support of their society, and I for one would like to see us all doing better to support trans & nonbinary youth.
I love that this channel is so much more than fashion. I have a Trans nephew, and I can relate to your explanation of the process. Thank you for sharing.
Everytime I see a video you do with Ivy or about Ivy I smile and worry at the same time. I smile because I love how supportive you are and how close you are. I worry because this world is so mean at times. These days there are so many people that feel they have the right to tell others how to live and judge people they don't understand. As I've said in other posts as a parent we want the easiest and happiest life for our children. I wish there was a way to protect our children from the cruelties of the world. As always I wish you and your family the best. Maybe people can learn from your relationship.
Love this! Ivy is so composed and eloquent, just 'owning her skin' in such an inspirational way. I'm hugely impressed with Carla too. What a beautifully supportive mother, whilst still being honest and sincere. Again - such a dream team. Thank you for this further lovely insight into your story and perspectives.
I want to praise both Carla and Ivy for bringing these issues they've both dealt with this and brought out into the wider world in the way they have . Normalisation of the process with no judgement is the way with the heart as the compass and you guys are both amazing, setting an example for others. Awesome!
As a Medical Biochemist, Ivy is absolutely making the right moves in her transition by not yet taking hormones or having surgeries. Before taking anything which could affect her fertility, it is a great idea to speak to a hormone/fertility specialist .... A friend's transitioning daughter was recommended to have the necessary things frozen for future child opportunities. Bless her, this is not an easy route either physically or mentally but having you 100% behind her makes the world of difference. Fortunately, she has also inherited your pretty face so she's going to be a cracker!!
As a trans parent I am so in awe of Carla and Ivy I love my daughter and I’m so proud of her journey. I am so proud of every trans parent because we are behind are kids, holding them up, supporting them, helping them to be happy 🏳️⚧️❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🏳️⚧️
Loved watching the loving relationship the two of you share, and hearing the two of you share your perspectives on the acceptance that has been so important to your evolving relationship. You both have such vibrant smiles and shine an amazing light into the world! And I totally agree, Carrie all the way! :-)
I stumbled up this video when I looked for a recently posted video of Carla showing her styling of tight fitting and a loose fitting rainbow dresses. I wanted to show it to my afab non-binary kiddo. I’d kill for a styling session with you Carla! And i love all the things you said about trans kiddos being the same as they were before. Love you guys!
Such a great interview 😊Ivy is amazing. You must be a proud mum . It’s great to help us all learn . Sometimes it’s hard to navigate how to behave and not cause any offence that is truly not meant . Xx
Is there ever enough love in the world? Nope! Glad to see Ivy & Carla putting more of it out there! Both of you have an ability to be honest, open & vulnerable that is truly inspiring.
Carla, what an amazing mom you are! And Ivy, you are smart, well-spoken, fun and pretty. I love you both and wish you and Ivy tons of love and support on this amazing journey.
Look at that, two women slaying the internet with kindness, open mindedness and the love of self expression!! Congrats to you both Carla and Ivy, on your ever expanding platform for positive change!!! 🥰💜☺️
Carla, the way you explained as a parent,was both honest and forthright and refreshing too. So many parents freak out with their kids whether it's because of a sexual identity issue or a simple case of getting tattoos. They react so quickly, no wonder kids don't want to talk to their parents. Parents need to take a deep breath, reason within their own heart and mind, then patiently listen. Listening is the key. I applaud you for doing just that. I applaud Ivy too, for knowing what she wanted her life to be and knowing that Mom is still going to be Mom and it's okay to find their way together. P. S. Ivy looks like your mini me.
I love your love that you have for your child. You are a wonderful mother and fierce protector of your offspring. Please leave room for what might be later in life that your child cannot see nor feel now. Feelings are fleeting and slippery. One year one feels definitively about something and the next may feel completely differently with no one advocating for wisdom and patience. Grappling with what is irreversible is...sorrowful. Please leave room and options for the things your child cannot know now... 🙏
Okay, both of you are GLOWING here, Ivy is literally looking like a fairy who just stepped out of a dewy waterfall scene. But that aside, what a wonderful conversation. You are both so smart, confident, and composed here. Really wonderful!
Ivy is so well spoken especially for being so young! Can’t wait to see what the future holds for her and I hope the both of them can continue to advocate for trans rights and visibility 😊
Ivy, just be the best you, you can be. You've got a great mom there supporting you. It's so cute that you "went into the closet" to talk about it 💕 Carla, you're always such a tonic to watch and it's joyous when you do reels together. The love and support really comes across. Live and hugs to you both.
mis queridas ivy y carla! estoy emocionada después de oíros, y os admiro muchísimo... cuánto amor, cuánta inteligencia, cuánta empatía, cuánta comprensión, cuánta honestidad! os adoro🥰♥️♥️
Newish to the channel and I’ll be honest I had no idea about this just thought and still think what a beautiful relationship between mother and daughter. You are both pretty amazing human beings. As a parent I love how you talked about being a pillar and holding your thoughts!! You have given her roots so now she can fly!
I love the two! What a wonderful mother she is!!! Just BLESSINGS to the both of them and there whole family! What they are going through is not easy. ❤
Love this so much! Ivy is so brave and you are helping so many with bringing your private life public. To all who do not have their parents support, I applaud you with your support. I am here to give hugs, kisses and support to all who need!
Thank you Carla. I 'm an aunt of a transgender young man. I am immensely proud of him and could never imagine not supporting him. He is supported by his whole family. Much love....
What a beautiful relationship you have together! ❤️ Life would be so much better (& easier) if this was the norm & everyone was accepted the way they are! Carla, I don’t always love some of your finds, as I’m in my mid 40’s, however I LOVE your excitement for clothes & vintage finds. It doesn’t matter what decade they were designed, you know how to throw things together that most women wouldn’t think to do. And most importantly, I LOVE your closet! ❤❤
As a parent, how can you not be supportive? When my daughter came out, I was scared, only because of the hate she could have experienced. Unfortunately we lost a few relatives through bigotry, but i supported my kid. Always.
My daughter is named Ivy, what a beautiful name. I love this so much I love the support and love. Absolutely beautiful. With so much needless hate and bad in this world, it's wonderful to see this ☺️ ❤️❤️❤️
I adore Ivy ❤, She’s beautiful & smart & is glowing with happiness!! I love how Carla is rigorously honest about her initial reaction . It’s so helpful for parents , to realize that it’s OK to feel initially sad , that it is a PROCESS of coming to terms with all of it .. And a wonderful suggestion it is to keep certain things to yourself, your child doesn’t need to feel burdened by your fears .. It’s a precious & precarious time for them.
Thank you for explaining both of .your hopes and fears, dificultirs snd how it wasn't an overnight process but it happened over a few years and it took time to adjust for eveyone. Much love!!!
I am a dedicated follower of Carla’s and feel so much respect and admiration for her as a Mother. I have gained huge inspiration for her as an influencer, firstly in how to work your wardrobe and now as an advocate for normalising social change ( gender identity). Look what she’s achieved with Ivy - a grounded and confident teen, who I also now celebrate. Following them together is beyond inspiring. They’re a fun, funny and fashion forward duo. ❤❤
Hello Carla While we wait for your exciting draw, i am trying to get Bobbie Brown Petal Number 3. Has it been discontinued and if not, what is the brand and colour of the pencil you work your lippy combo with ? Seems to have been discontinued….🌸🌸🌸
*Ivy and me Sorry, I can't help myself. Ivy you are so fortunate to have such an accepting, understanding and fun mom. I'm so happy for you. You're both awesome!
I only can wish I am as eloquent as ivy! She is so poised. I think everything you both said is so important, women's movements and trans movements are so intimately intertwined, our liberation is bound to that of the other 💕💓
Listening-what a concept?!?! The hardest part of parenting is just shutting up. I’m trying to (re)learn that lesson every day (and my “baby” is only 34…). Anytime now I’ll get it.
What a beautiful relationship you have together! ❤️ Life would be so much better (& easier) if this was the norm & everyone was accepted the way they are! Carla, I don’t always love some of your finds, as I’m in my mid 40’s, however I LOVE your excitement for clothes & vintage finds. It doesn’t matter what decade they were designed, you know how to throw things together that most women wouldn’t think to do. And most importantly, I LOVE your closet! ❤❤
You are both beautiful and although you are both stunning on the outside, the beauty I see is shinning from within. Thank you both for being steadfast in your love and respect not just yourselves but for eachother. The world needs more people like you two. ❤️
thank youuuu! lots of words + feelings (all good//helpful) so for now, i'll just say thank you - to both you _and_ Ivy. i appreciate the representation more than you now. 🖤✊🏾
Hola, te sigo hace poco tiempo y me encantó tu manera e ideas del vestir. Y hoy también tienen mi respeto y admiración cómo familia! Bendiciones! 🇲🇽🙌🙏🙏💜💚
Ivy and this glass skin 😍 It's going to be hard enough with transitioning, but when you are your mom's twin, people compare the two. Hopefully, Ivy will be able to live and her own person.
What a beautiful pair! Not to mention the strain of doing this in Greg Abbott’s Texas…wealth is a great barrier to having the hateful state government refer you to family services! Best of luck to these two beautiful women.
I love how natural you are with your Girl the two of you are just the best And brave for speaking up if there was only more people like you two xxx love Joan Ireland
I just love both of your journeys! Carla you are such a pillar of support for Ivy and you can tell how comfortable she is speaking about her journey. Also, I love that you both let each other speak to their own feelings. Your acceptance and love shine through in everything you do! Ivy is a very lucky girl
WELCOME to the world of Transmotherhood! I identify as non-binary post menopause. I’m 55 and have always been androgynous but I wouldn’t have been able to identify this way without my trans daugher. Henry became Paige 3 years ago in college. She is still struggling to launch into the world as a trans woman but she has an amazing support system of friends and two amazing partners!
I. LOVE. THIS❣❣❣ Ivy, your CONFIDENCE is like a breath of fresh air. And, much needed at this time, thank you, BEAUTIFUL Angel 😇 ...keep shining your light!
Think of the wardrobe Ivy can raid I could literally sleep and live in Carla's wardrobe I enjoy watching Carla and Ivy Yes the most important thing parents want is for their children to be happy Wishing Ivy all the best, You go girl, Live life, Be you, Be happy 💕💕💕
I really liked it that Ivy spoke about how the women’s movement and the trans rights movement have similar goals and are intertwined.

What a pair❣️ As a 71 year old woman whose brother came out in 1975 it makes me happy that the movement continues 👏🏽. Not only that but it has been more inclusive and able to change. Peace, light, and Love ❤️ to you both.
Ivy has such kind eyes. She looks like a Disney pixar character, and has the spirit too. So sweet❤❤
Yes she does!!! I love her face!!
Oh my goodness she does look like a Pixar character … she’s absolutely precious 💋
Love to see a supportive family. You're giving hope to so many people out there simply by being a good person.
Always! So important
It’s just beautiful to see a mother with such an open heart

Absolutely!!
My son who is 13, came out over a year ago.
Thank you for sharing your experience and advocacy. It helps more than you know. ❤
Thanks for sharing!!
You are such a great mom. Ivy wish you all the peace and happiness in the world. ❤️

Brilliant. We don’t have to be what makes our child’s life more difficult.
Ivy is so freaking cute! My heart is melting. I love how honest mom is but supportive at the same time.
Simultaneous head tilts and nods.
Smart intelligent women you both!! You must be so proud of Ivy.

Hello Carla
While we wait for your exciting draw, i am trying to get Bobbie Brown Petal Number 3. Has it been discontinued and if not, what is the brand and colour of the pencil you work your lippy combo with ? Seems to have been discontinued….🌸🌸🌸
*Ivy and me Sorry, I can't help myself.
Ivy you are so fortunate to have such an accepting, understanding and fun mom. I'm so happy for you. You're both awesome!
😊 thank you
Incorrect. The trick is to read the sentence without "Ivy and". You wouldn't say "Me advocates for..."
You two are incredible!! Thank you for sharing so whole-heartedly!!🙏🏽💛💫

thank youuuu! lots of words + feelings (all good//helpful) so for now, i'll just say thank you - to both you _and_ Ivy.
i appreciate the representation more than you now. 🖤✊🏾
kkkkkknow** i meant. 🤦🏾♀️ 😅
Ivy looks so pretty and acts so kind. You two are awesome! Love watching you ❤
Thank you so much!!
I love the honesty of this conversation.
I love this mother and daughter combo .. their fashion ideas are amazing. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽😍😍✨
Thank you so much!!
Hola, te sigo hace poco tiempo y me encantó tu manera e ideas del vestir. Y hoy también tienen mi respeto y admiración cómo familia! Bendiciones! 🇲🇽🙌🙏🙏💜💚
How lucky for Ivy that she’s the same shoe size as her mother… I love Carla’s shoe collection 🙌🏾😂😂😂
Thank you for sharing your truths! ❤
Ivy and this glass skin 😍
It's going to be hard enough with transitioning, but when you are your mom's twin, people compare the two. Hopefully, Ivy will be able to live and her own person.
You two are truly beautiful. I wish my mom was like that when I came out. Our relationship never fully recovered.
Sending love and healing ❤️❤️
What a beautiful pair! Not to mention the strain of doing this in Greg Abbott’s Texas…wealth is a great barrier to having the hateful state government refer you to family services! Best of luck to these two beautiful women.
I love how natural you are with your Girl the two of you are just the best And brave for speaking up if there was only more people like you two xxx love Joan Ireland
At the end of the day, it’s your child and you want them to be happy and healthy.
I love you both. Thankyou for your sincerity and bravery. Xxx ❤️
I just love both of your journeys! Carla you are such a pillar of support for Ivy and you can tell how comfortable she is speaking about her journey. Also, I love that you both let each other speak to their own feelings. Your acceptance and love shine through in everything you do! Ivy is a very lucky girl
Absolutely love! 🌞♥🌸
Thank you! Cheers!
Carla keep talking about the parent’s experience because I think that the thing you say are so important.
What. A. Joy watching the two of you together. The epitome of love. Xo
WELCOME to the world of Transmotherhood! I identify as non-binary post menopause. I’m 55 and have always been androgynous but I wouldn’t have been able to identify this way without my trans daugher. Henry became Paige 3 years ago in college. She is still struggling to launch into the world as a trans woman but she has an amazing support system of friends and two amazing partners!
Sending you and Paige love and support ❤️❤️
What an excellent interview. Ivy is her mom’s twin. I’m glad that she chose Ivy as her name. It’s a cool name.
I. LOVE. THIS❣❣❣ Ivy, your CONFIDENCE is like a breath of fresh air. And, much needed at this time, thank you, BEAUTIFUL Angel 😇 ...keep shining your light!
XOXO
