This powerful episode is centered on family as Layne talks with two of his aunts, both from different states, about how his transition has affected them, what they've learned and how they think it has impacted the family. This meaningful discussion shares two different sides of the transition; from the perspective of relatives coming to terms with a big change and of Layne, coming to terms with himself.

He also shares what he hates and loves about being Trans this month and... you'll never guess what happened!

A filmed podcast exploring Trans issues—and more—from a Trans Masculine perspective, hosted by Layne Ingram. Through real, emotional, and hilarious conversations, Layne shares personal stories, interviews guests and dives deep into the often missed, often purposefully ignored stories of the Transgender and Trans adjacent community.

Everyone is welcome —Trans, Cis and everyone in between—who is interested in important conversations around our ever-evolving and fascinating world of gender identity and the ways in which we can contribute to a Reconstructed and more inclusive society.

This project was born out of a desire to amplify the visibility of the FTM Trans experience, engage an active community of allies, and embrace and uplift our entire, beautiful Trans community.
