In this episode of 'Identity Crisis' comedian JNewtz chats with trans-woman Jess Tilley, formerly Jeremy', about her life and identity struggle, knowing deep down that she was a girl and not a boy, but tried to 'fit in' with society and the traditional gender pathways.
Join JNewtz in this truly inspirational episode with Jess Tilley as they break down the stigmas attached to the trans community and talk about what transitioning is really like. Hearing her story about the mental anguish living as a man and repressing who she really was, and finally becoming the person she truly wants to be, serves to inspire us al to follow what we really want for ourselves. She tells it like it is: balls out and no pussy-footing around. Oh and don't get her started on pronouns "I ain't got no time for that shit!" ~ Jess Tilley
We cover:
Remember - we are not alone. We all have demons, self esteem issues and can suffer from imposter syndrome. It's okay to not be okay, so reach out and talk to someone, but most of all never give up on your goals and dreams, or you may very well regret it.
