Out, What Now?!

Micah Allen: Leaving Jehovah's Witness to Embrace His Queer & Trans Identity


Listen Later

Today I am chatting with the Micah Allen (he/him), a queer and transgender man who left the Jehovah’s Witness a year ago in order to come out and transition. Trans experiences vary so much and Micah kindly shares his individual experience along with his experience being raised as a Jehovah’s Witness and the challenges in leaving.  


In this episode, we cover:

  • Micah’s experience as a Jehovah’s Witness and what it’s like leaving
  • Two pieces of advice Micah would give to those in the early stages of a transition
  • Why a legal name change is necessary and even a matter of safety
  • What has felt the most affirming in Micah’s transition so far



If you want to chat more about this topic, I would love to continue this conversation with you over on Instagram! @megstheconnector
