In this powerful episode of Trans Crush, host Zelah Glasson sits down with Kai, a 25-year-old model from Liverpool, to explore the complexities of the trans experience in the UK today. Kai opens up about his journey from realizing his identity as a "masc lesbian" to transitioning into the man he is today.

He shares the raw realities of top surgery, including the unexpected "winky face" nipple loss, the challenges of dating as a trans person, and the vital importance of family support. From the high-pressure world of modeling to the deeply personal process of medical transition, Kai’s story is one of resilience, humor, and radical self-acceptance.
