What does it truly mean to choose yourself? In this deeply moving conversation, we're joined by Dom, who takes us on his journey from feeling fundamentally disconnected from his assigned gender at age six to embracing his authentic identity as a transgender man.
The conversation flows with raw honesty as Dom reveals the internal struggle of being perceived as a girl while knowing deep inside this wasn't who he was. "I had friends and they wanted to do their makeup and they wanted to wear dresses... and I was like that's not me," Dom shares, describing the growing disconnect that intensified during puberty. His story powerfully illustrates that gender identity isn't about sexuality or preferences, but about an innate sense of self.
Dom doesn't shy away from the darker moments—including depression and suicidal thoughts—that characterized his pre-transition life. But the transformation following his decision to transition at 18 is nothing short of remarkable. "I felt more loving, I felt more hopeful about life," he explains, while Carmen, who's known Dom since birth, confirms seeing an immediate positive change in his demeanor. This before-and-after contrast provides a compelling testament to the life-changing impact of gender-affirming care and the acceptance of loved ones.
Beyond his personal story, Dom offers thoughtful wisdom for others navigating similar paths and for allies wanting to understand. He emphasizes safety first when coming out, patience with loved ones adjusting to new pronouns, and the importance of research before making permanent changes. The conversation challenges common misconceptions while remaining accessible, making complex topics relatable through personal experience rather than abstract theory.
Whether you're questioning your own gender identity, supporting someone who is, or simply seeking to better understand transgender experiences, this episode offers valuable insights delivered with warmth, hum
