I meditate on my own body during the process of gender affirmation surgery. While it is only one part of who I am, the discrimination that trans women experience all over the world, as well as reduced chances of thriving and significantly shortened life expectancy, demands consideration. I experience exclusion in every facet of my personal and professional life as a matter of course.
