In this enlightening episode, your host,  Rosie Gill-Moss, is joined by Maria Margetts. 
Maria opens up about her journey as a trans woman who began  her transition after losing her wife, Mandy to ovarian cancer.
Maria shares their love story, their desire for a child  and Mandy's eventual death. She discusses the challenges of raising their two adopted children, including a daughter with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder.
After Mandy's death, Maria joined a widow's support group which gave the courage to come out as trans. 
What's lovely is the acceptance she's found both at work and within her family.
Maria also shares her pride in becoming an ambassador for WAY @widowedandyoung to support other LGBTQ members. 
She offers a unique, yet also familiar (we all change, right?) insight into grieving a spouse who never knew her as she is now. Maria is funny, candid and utterly captivating, you'll love this one.
