  • The decision to transition genders from male to female was the hardest decision of my life and it took years to get to that point. So much has happened since I began the process about eighteen months ago and a lot of it has been very challenging.
    This wasn't a choice to be something I'm not but, rather, it was a burning need to survive and live and love in an authentic life.
    There are a lot things (mostly material) that I have lost and some relationships but I have been given a tremendous gift of living my best life and loving it, and the people in it, with all of me rather than just a shadow of who I actually am.
    If you're in the closet, thinking of coming out or trying to figure out when to go full-time, I hope this video helps. The gifts, and life, received far outweigh anything and everything lost.

    Challenges, hurdles and major changes in my life dynamics but worth every step. Will I ever get publicly active? I thought about it but in the end for me it is not a path I need or want to take. Yes I lost a lot but I have gained so much more and am growing as the woman I always was. Thank you for being you Kate, I appreciate your existence.

      Thanks so much! We all have different paths to follow but they all lead to authenticity.

    Thank you for being so raw and real. I have a trans sibling and I really want to understand. I want to encourage Christians to not reject people's new names and to not use dead pronouns. I want to apologize if you've been hurt by people who profess to be Christians. I really want us to get better at loving. Be mightily blessed.

      Epic Kate Bjärgvide I’m sorry, but you shouldn’t force people to change what they say just because you don’t want to hear it. I can’t force people to call me an animal if I want to be one.

    Good film. I liked the content. I like your look in this film.
    Though, I found a thing that reminded me that when the production is really good, no-one notices. In this film the biggest thing I noticed was the increased number of jump cuts. Trying to work out why this was 🤔 Did you decide that you would experimentally prioritise the vocal flow, and to hell with the number of jump cuts? Also you seem to be very close to the camera, and the shape of the painting on the wall suggests that the camera is pointing somewhat upwards, which gives you quite an imposing position. Interesting effect. Also you seem to have dialled up the expressiveness a lot in this one! TBH I kind of like the higher expressiveness, in a way. Going back to the jump cuts I wonder if you are making a sideways comment on the way many UA-cam videos are heavily cut for the millennial attention span 😄
