Somebody on Tik Tok said that “Caitlyn Jenner is to Trans people what Candace Owens is to Black people” and I don’t think it could have been put any better. When I first read that, my initial reaction was light-hearted in that I kind of chuckle-grimaced before the weight of all that’s going on and […]

I have so many feelings right now as it relates to just being me. I mean a lot has changed in a long, but still relatively short period of time. It’s been six years and 14 days since I got my first shot of Testosterone in Ann Arbor, MI. I will never forget that day. […]

My sister tagged me in a Tik Tok video comment that read: You didn’t always know what you know now so that’s important to keep in mind when educating others. Ps I love you @Layne Ingram. She’s so right; and so much more right than she knows. I put a lot of pressure on myself […]

I’m just sitting here deeply reflecting on how different I am as a 41-year old man versus when I was a 16-year old *girl*. That was an interesting sentence to type.

Dear Trans Kids, First, let me start off by saying that I’m so proud of you. And a bit jealous of your self-knowledge at such a young age. The courage and bravery you have and will continue to develop just from being born you is off the charts. It takes both of those things to […]

I’ve been struggling with what to write about – not for lack of topics but because of all the things that have been flying around in my head over the past year, past few months, weeks, minutes really. I feel like my mind is going non-stop all the time. At a moment in our lives […]
