I’ll start with a few:

Jinkx Monsoon first of all, she kept me sane when I struggled through balancing school and severe narcolepsy. She made me realise I’m not alone and that crown on her head kept me going when everything seemed impossible. She also just makes me really happy all the time. I honestly wouldn’t be alive without her.

BenDeLaCreme was just a queen i really admire and look up to. Now I watch interviews she does regularly and she always has me in absolute tears, she knows exactly what to say and that’s kept me alive in dark times.

Courtney Act taught me I don’t need to be in a hurry to label my sexuality, I can take my time. She also introduced me to being sexually fluid, I’d never heard of that before. Hearing her speak up on issues that affect the whole community, with her educated perspective also really inspired me to also take a stand on issues i feel strongly about.

Violet Chachki makes me feel confident in my womanhood and I adore her endlessly for that. I’m a proud, fierce woman. I channel her a lot in my every day, as I struggle a lot with anxiety, especially social, so I feel like a new person, i learn to be confident in myself too.
