We are so honored to have Alicia Araballo join us today to share her transition story and much more. Alicia has been an educator for 36 years; she is a counselor and former teacher, an LGBTQ+ advocate, and she recently came out as a trans woman at the age of 62.
As the oldest of five siblings in a traditional Latino family, coming to terms with her gender identity and sexuality was extremely challenging. The predominant machismo, and the absence of information and role models from the LGBTQ+ community, added to Alicia's confusion about who she really was throughout a big part of her life.
When she first attempted to transition over 25 years ago, the lack of family and social support as well as difficulty finding quality gender-affirming medical and mental health care caused Alicia to put that dream on hold, but not forever.
In this episode, the first of this two-part interview, Alicia shares her journey of discovering herself through the many "twists," as she calls them, in her life that led to getting in touch with amazing, supportive people who finally helped her rediscover and become her true self.
In This Episode, You Will Learn:
- About how Alicia always felt different since she was a little girl, even without the words to explain it (1:42)
- About Christine Jorgensen's story and how it touched Alicia's life (4:34)
- How Alicia's family dealt with same sex relationships and how that affected her in her self-discovery journey (8:01)
- How Alicia's first therapist told her that she was possessed by a demon (10:20)
- Feeling like an island and about Alicia's first hormone treatment (16:10)
- Alicia finally gets in touch with people who really understand her (22:21)
- The decision and the happiness attached to deciding to transition at 62 (33:31)
