Many of you probably remember Leigh Janet Marshall’s story of childhood trans identification, followed by sterilization and detransition. Leigh is back today for an update on her journey since her appearance on the podcast nearly one year ago.

After the recording, Leigh was met with both heroism and villainization. Peers claimed that she had weaponized her experience to harm 'true trans' sufferers and even condemned her for supposedly using her life experience to ‘fuel right wing extremism.’ The silver lining to the process of sharing her story was the revival of sisterhood in her life but it also came with a difficult period of over-identification with detransition.

Now, she is ‘detransitioning from detransition.’

Leigh reminds us that in politicizing our identities, we remain in our intellect and has written her testimony indulging the overactive, analytical mind in a productive way, while giving her the space to remember that thoughts are not the full truth, and identities are merely waypoints on a lifetime’s worth of shifts and evolution. Through this process of reacquainting with the body, she has also healed from violent panic attacks and disordered eating. Joining ‘the real world,’ in her words, and dropping the stories she held about how others would condemn her for her past, she has made connections ten times over what she lost.
