What would you see? How would you experience the world? How would your interactions with others be different? Who would you physically be or desire to be?\r\nNow imagine, through those explorations, you suddenly discover you weren\u2019t meant to be confined in the \u201chuman form,\u201d or at least the one you born into. In that moment, or many moments along the journey of your life, you realized what you needed was to be you. Not the physical you that is reflected in the mirror, but instead the spiritual you that stood crying, \u201cLet me come out and play!\u201d Sound familiar? Maybe, but nothing reflects this inner spirit, turmoil, and truly pretending to be something that you\u2019re not, than to be living as a man trapped in a woman\u2019s body or vice versus.\r\nIn honor of all those who brave the confusion, fear, and demons of acceptance of being trapped in the body that simply doesn\u2019t fit like a favorite pair of jeans, we honor our Transgender brothers and sisters.\r\nRyan Sallans, female to male transgender, is going to unravel the \u201cmysteries of transgender acceptance,\u201d this week on The Coming Out Lounge. Smart, witty, and wrapped in a hot new package of masculine sexuality, Ryan has become a National Speaker, Advocate, Inclusion Trainer, and a symbol of truly \u201cliving in your truth.\u201d\r\nCaring deeply for those in pain, Ryan utilizes his story, addictions, disorders, and deep compassion to bring a ray of hope to all he encounters. During this weeks show we\u2019ll be going raw and real, taking a deep dive into the truth of finally saying, \u201cDammit this is me and I\u2019m going to allow my inner rebel to come out and play before its to late.\r\nVisit Ryan\u2019s Website.\r\n","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/4b9b6c41-474a-4fd0-a374-cbb2a7aa23a4/1400x1400_uncloseted_artwork-01-573.jpg"}
