Tristin Wolfname (Chosen One)

Inspire! Season 2 Episode 4

Tristin Wolfname (Chosen One) is an enrolled member of the Northern Cheyenne Tribe and a transgender woman. In this podcast she describes her experience living as a trans woman in a discriminating world. She reflects on what it was like growing up on the Northern Cheyenne reservation, the daughter of a Northern Cheyenne Chief. Everyone thought she was gay, but she was not. As young as the age of 2 or 3 years old, she felt like she was born in the wrong body. She was female but not aligned with her sexual reproductive organs. This conversation has major implications for how we view and treat others in our world.
