Lost at Sea: A Story of Resilience
Lost at Sea: A Story of Resilience Online
At 24 years old, I’ve already lived through what feels like a lifetime of change. I’m a transgender man, and my journey to becoming who I truly am has been far from easy. Living with PTSD and a chronic illness, I’ve faced battles that tested my mental and physical strength. I’ve known the crushing weight of failure—like when I failed out of college, feeling like my world had collapsed. But I also know the power of resilience, because I picked myself up, returned to school, and proudly graduated. Now, I’m pursuing an MBA, chasing dreams I never thought were possible.
My journey took a major turn when I was forced to pack up my life and leave everything I knew behind. Moving across the country was terrifying, but it was necessary. It was a decision I made to live authentically, to build a future where I could be myself—something I couldn’t do in the place I once called home. The waters have been rough, but I’m still here, learning, growing, and proving to myself that I can make it through anything.
