Is there a different dynamic in your home when having half siblings? Maybe that term doesn't exist to people because whether your sibling is your maternal or paternal family, they are just simply family to you. 

I sit down with one of my younger sisters to discuss the importance of forming a family bond and how that ties into exactly who you call family.

From the first day I met my friend Deshon, I got a sense of exactly who she is and that goes beyond being a trans woman. I never asked about her transition until now and we had a great conversation as it relates to overall change, maturity and growth that we all experience in life. Enjoy!
