We were so grateful to sit down with the incredible Grace Taylor, who courageously and openly shares her story of transitioning from man to woman. Grace’s journey is deeply inspiring- filled with honesty, wisdom, and, fittingly, so much grace.
In this heartfelt conversation, Grace reflects on the courage it took to finally live as her true self, the unique challenges and beauty of every trans journey, and the importance of visibility and understanding.
Dena has known Grace both before and after her transition, so sharing this moving dialogue with her dear friend about identity, acceptance, and advocacy for the trans community was so powerful.
Beyond her personal journey, Grace is also a gifted artist whose creativity continues to inspire those around her.
