Glori Dei Filippone (they/them) is a recent graduate of New York University. They realized that they were trans in college and we talk about how they came to that understanding and what it was like to tell family and friends. We also talk about the relief they experienced when they realized who they are, but also the sense of loss and pain that this realization brought with it. Glori Dei explains some of the misconceptions about gender identity and helps us to understand the process involved, both internally as well as externally.
