Very helpful

I really enjoyed hearing about your journey and look forward to the next episode. It’s always nice to hear someone’s perspective of how they came to the decisions they have and what lead them to become the person they are today. We all have a path and I’m all for listening and learning about another persons life story. I’ve watched your changes and it’s so enlightening to hear the backstory on how the change came about. Looking forward to the continuing episodes.

So human!

Provides ideas on how we could all support each other and ourselves in living as our free and authentic selves, (which ya know is key to experiencing satisfaction and joy). Important, useful and delicious food for thought I wouldnt have come up with on my own. Thanks for this! It’s a true gift to understand transgender life a little better.
