My Second Puberty is an exploration of my own transition and of the things that have been a part of my trans journey. All trans people are magical and all trans journeys are valid. Getting the chance to talk to other people about their experiences and journeys and feelings and emotions makes me feel so fortunate and I hope you get the same feeling from listening to these conversations.
Listen to me put my own voice training to the test as I talk about hormone medication and voice training and the many different pieces that come with dysphoria around voices for trans people.

There is a lot of shame when you transition and wonder almost every day if what you are doing is the right thing. Every time you see yourself there are a lot of questions. Will I ever feel right in this body? Should I have told anyone how I felt about my identity? Would life have been better for everyone if I had never said anything? Am I making progress with transition or are things getting worse?

In light of really heavy times and realizing a lot of times are really heavy times for trans people, Nick and I share a few gift ideas from our past and present. From Nick's very specially curated Shopper's Drug Mart goodie bag to my plea for more tattoos please, there is hopefully something for all the trans people in your life.

In this episode I just talk about one of my cats, Waffles and how damn special he is. Honestly he is on my lap now making this hard to type. But pets are so amazing and can be so influential in transition and Woof has been that and more to me.
