What does it take to truly live as your authentic self?

In this episode, I sit down with Wendy Cole, host of Demystifying the Transgender Journey, to talk about her extraordinary path to self-acceptance.

Wendy knew from a young age that she was a girl, but societal expectations forced her to hide her true identity for decades. It wasn’t until she was 67 that she finally embraced who she had always been.

Wendy shares the struggles and breakthroughs that led to her transition, the emotional toll of repressing her true self, and the incredible freedom she found in finally living authentically. But this conversation isn’t just about gender—it’s about reinvention, resilience, and the power of embracing who you are at any stage of life.

Join us for an open and inspiring discussion on courage, identity, and what it really means to become who you've always been.
