Long time no see. The last time you saw me, I was talking about taking a break, and I did take a break,\u201d Lilly<\/strong> said on TikTok on Tuesday (October 7).<\/p>\n She continued, \u201cWhile I was gone, I did some reflecting on the way that I\u2019ve been approaching things and figured something out. And that something is that I\u2019ve been leading with anger. I kind of already knew that before, but I\u2019ve been leading with anger, specifically that I don\u2019t want to lead with anger. I think that\u2019s a really easy trap to fall into, to let anger be the fuel because there\u2019s a lot of anger to around, especially being a trans person in this day and age. But I don\u2019t want it anymore, because it makes me unhappy. It\u2019s easier said than done, but the goal is to lead with kindness. So that\u2019s what I\u2019m going to do, not just in making content, but in everything that I do.\u201d<\/p>\n Lilly<\/strong> says that she\u2019s going to resume her live streams and will be showing off her new obsession with Disney card packs. She\u2019ll also go back to streaming at restaurants. <\/p>\n Learn more about TikTok stars and viral trends<\/a> right now. <\/p>\n <\/span><\/p><\/div>\n
