It’s time to build a life that feels like yours
To wallow is in direct contradiction of feeling empowered and I for one choose empowerment. Are you ready to take control of your life? Are you ready to celebrate this one life you’ve been given? Join me and let’s take a closer look at what it could mean to celebrate you!

In this deeply personal post, Dean shares the journey of recognizing and accepting his transgender identity as an adult — and the fear, uncertainty, and inner work that came with it. From worrying about his role as a parent to untangling the complex relationship between gender identity and childhood trauma, Dean walks readers through the moments that ultimately led him to begin testosterone injections and step fully into his authentic self. But this post isn’t just about being transgender. It’s about the universal experience of hiding who you are — and what becomes possible when you stop.
