This Interview was so informative, emotional and uplifting that I decided to make this a 3 part series for episode 8. There are many struggles and sacrifices living your truth as a transgender person. Imagine being on Active Duty in the U.S Army when you finally decide to accept your truth. This is about family, struggles, triumphs and love of country.
