🫵🏻 is the Index Pointing At the Viewer emoji with the light skin tone applied — same meaning and uses, in the tone that looks like you.
A human, but yellow hand pointing at the reader with the index finger while the rest of the fingers are all tucked into the palm.

It could also be an uplifting way of speaking to the 'You' in the situation - the second person.
