TRANS CRUSH episodes

  • From Catholic School to Stealth Trans Woman

    What if being trans was the least interesting thing about you?

    Today, we talked about growing up in a Catholic school, surviving trauma without even knowing it, and how university became her quiet turning point.
    We talk about art, music, and the power of choosing a low-key life.
    Why she doesn’t talk about being trans and why that’s exactly her right.

    In this Patreon-only episode, where she opens up about her dating life after vaginoplasty, the awkward conversations, the horror stories, and the moments no one prepares you for.

    We talk about whether she tells guys she’s trans on the first date, the pressure of being “post-op,” and the silent expectations that come with it.

    It’s honest, raw, and full of the things people are too scared to ask but we’re not!


    So much realness it will make you blush every Thursday on Trans Crush.

  • What Happens When You Are Trans and Intersex? Samsara Answered!

    She’s not just trans. Not just intersex.

    Samsara is both — and she’s rewriting everything you thought you knew.

    Raised in Hong Kong and sent to an all-boys school, Samsara’s story doesn’t start with acceptance — it starts with survival. Now, as a rising artist, she’s stepping into a version of herself the world isn’t ready for.

    What does it mean to exist outside the binary — in your body, in your relationships, in your everyday life?

    How does that shape the way people see you?

    How does it shape the way you see yourself?

    What happens when you no longer fit the categories you were forced into?

    What do you lose when you try to belong — and what do you gain when you stop trying?

    We talked identity, duality, desire, shame, and strength.

    We talked about beauty. And power. And what it means to live in contradiction without asking for permission.

    It’s real, it’s rare, and you’ve probably never seen anything like that before.

    So much realness it will make you blush every Thursday on Trans Crush.

    On this Patreon-only episode, Samsara opens up about her dating goals, heartbreaks, and what it’s really like to date as someone who’s both trans and intersex.
    We get into:
    – how her chromosomes shaped her puberty
    – being called a hermaphrodite
    – her biggest turn-ons and turn-offs
    – the chaos of modern dating
    – and what she wants you to know before you date someone like her
    Oh — and there are some wild stories you won’t believe she actually told us.
    You won’t find this kind of honesty anywhere else!

  • The Truth About Chemsex, Addiction & Trans Mental Health

    This one’s not pretty. It’s not glamorous. But it’s real — and it’s necessary.

    This week on Trans Crush, I sit down with Marc Svensson from You Are Loved, a non-profit organisation supporting trans women and other queer people dealing with addiction, overdose, suicidal thoughts, and mental health challenges.

    We talk about:

    – Why chemsex is so common in the queer and trans community

    – The real roots of self-harm, self-hate, and low self-worth

    – What’s fueling the pain — and what we can do to actually heal

    – The power of prevention, care, and connection


    If you’ve ever felt like you were barely hanging on, this one’s for you.

    If you’ve lost someone, this one’s for them.

    This week I sat down with the one and only Alexis Blake, and wow… what an interview!
    You might know her as the trans YouTuber whose video blew up online — but in this episode, Alexis opens up about so much more. We talk about her childhood, what her transition was really like, and how that one viral moment sparked her whole career.

    This is real, raw, funny, and full of those moments that remind you why trans joy matters so much. 💖
