I really enjoyed being on this podcast. We had a candid conversation I feel you\u2019ll find very interesting\u2026 I spoke a lot about New Hope and my time there\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Welcome Wendy Cole to the podcast this week. We had the absolute privilege of interviewing Wendy and hearing her personal story. Wendy shares her struggles growing up in an era where being a trans person was not as easily accepted. Her story had us captivated and in awe of her strength.
On this episode we chat about\u2026
\u2013 Her life experiences and transition journey from childhood to now
\u2013 Having a supportive therapist and how that helped shape who she has always been
\u2013 Embracing the life she has always known and getting comfortable as Wendy
\u2013 Her experiences with surgery, dating, and her work as a transition mentor helping parents of kids who are trans
