In this episode, Gaby Baker sits down with two guests from Ballyfermot, Dublin, for an open and often funny conversation about identity, transformation, and the spiritual undercurrents running through their lives.Paige, 28, shares her journey as a trans woman — from recognizing her identity as a young child, through social and medical transition in her teens, to life two years post gender-reassignment surgery. She speaks candidly about resilience, self-acceptance, and why she sees her path not as something to overcome but as a source of strength and self-knowledge.Alan, known online as "Alan Loves World" (and affectionately as "Alan Loves Chicken"), talks about his years in reality TV, a Brazilian Butt Lift and its recovery, and a pivotal appearance on an American plastic-surgery TV show with Dr. Terry Dubrow that led him to reverse some cosmetic work and return to his natural red hair — a turning point he describes as central to becoming who he is today. He also identifies as non-binary and discusses fluid attraction, fame in a small community, and dealing with online trolling and tabloid attention.The conversation moves through psychic and intuitive experiences, protective "gut feeling" moments (including a frightening story about a nightclub scam in Istanbul), crystals and their spiritual associations (carnelian, rose quartz), and reflections on found family within the trans community. The episode closes with sponsor shout-outs and some lighthearted chicken-based banter throughout.Disclaimer: This podcast is for entertainment purposes only.
