Finally my turn (HRT)

Thanks Pamela, I enjoy everyone's input. Received an e-mail this afternoon from the VP of my organization that an executive committee has been selected to review my transgender workplace workshop. I'm set to present my proposal to the board 1st week of May. I'm a bit nervous and excited at the same time. If the committee approves my workshop proposal I'll have the opportunity to present to medical professionals about transgender working relationships, caring for a TG co-worker and disseminate information about what it means to be TG. I'm excited I have the opportunity to breathe life in to a topic not regularly discussed.

I've been working on this presentation for several weeks already. I'd like to thank the people from this forum who contributed ideas and their time, I couldn't have done it without you.

This is great!!!!!!!  If I can be of any help, please let me know!

Hello everyone, wanted to provide an update on my new job. As some of you know I recently left a 100K plus a year job to set myself free. It was a very painful decision but necessary to continue on my journey. I'm SOOO glad I took this leap of faith because it's opened a lot of doors since I started back in healthcare.
Last week I joined my new office of all females and they have been great! I love all the fashion and hair advice I get. Most importantly I've become a valued member of our team. I solve problems and have gained the respect of my colleagues. As far as my co-workers are concerned, I'm simply another girl in the office and I couldn't be happier.

I want to thank everyone on this forum for encouraging me to make good, intelligent, educated decisions. 
Your support and guidance are very important to me and I'm grateful to have great friends as my journey only gets better.

That sounds wonderful! They are lucky to have you; your positive attitude and optimism are contagious!  I always feel better after reading your posts.

Hello everyone, thought I'd post an update to my journey. Today marks 2 months since I began HRT. 1st month was definitely more of a roller coaster emotion wise. Lately I feel more "just on the edge" or verge of crying but not enough to cry uncontrollably. I can usually talk myself down or out of an emotional outburst thankfully.

My family remains thankful and supportive with the exception of one brother who will eventually come around, I'm not worried about him; he's a grown man, he's in charge of making his own decisions.
