Life Got Bigger Than Transition

April marked 13 years since I started testosterone. When I first realised I was transgender and began my gender transition, it was all I could think about. I was focused on changes, milestones, passing, and finally becoming the man I knew myself to be. But over the years, something unexpected happened. Transition stopped being the centre of my life, not because it stopped mattering, but because life got bigger. In this video, I reflect on what 13 years on testosterone has taught me, how my priorities have shifted, and the ways chronic illness, disability, autism, ADHD, relationships, and everyday life have all shaped who I am today. If you're early in your transition journey, I hope this offers some reassurance that there is life beyond the milestones. And if you've been here for a while, thank you for being part of the journey. šŸ“ŗ Watch my transition journey playlist: Ā Ā Ā ā€¢Ā šŸ’‰TestosteroneĀ JourneyĀ Ā  ___________________________________________________________________ šŸ“– READ MY STORY My Memoir, Top to Bottom: https://finlaygames.com/my-books/ 🌿 STAY CONNECTED Support my work on Ko-fi: https://ko-fi.com/finlaygames Join my Gentle Newsletter: https://finlaygames.substack.com/ ✨ RESOURCES & HELP Visit my website for my blog, shop, and pay-what-you-can email support: šŸ‘‰ https://finlaygames.com/links 🌈 ABOUT ME Hi I', Finn.
