Episode description

This week, we're taking you back to our very first episode of "Just Something About Her" with guest Charlotte Clymer, a writer, veteran, and activist. In this episode, she shares her journey coming out as a trans woman and some of the confusion and dark periods that led her there, including her time in the military. She sheds light on some of the discrimination and misconceptions she's faced since coming out, like being asked to show her ID before entering the bathroom in a D.C. bar.

But most importantly, Charlotte shares the freedom, joy, and pride she feels embracing her womanhood and living as her true self. Trans stories are often lost in our discussion of the LGBTQIA community. Or they’re too often told from the lens of tragedy and discrimination. But Charlotte's story is one of resilience, introspection, growth, and radiance, and one we're proud to share in light of Pride Month.
