Hi, I’m Reid Caelum, a 24-year-old transgender man. Welcome to my blog! Here, I share my personal experiences, insights, and reflections as a trans man navigating life, identity, and the LGBTQ+ community.
I am the proud father of two sons, having been pregnant with both, and I’m now navigating life as a single parent following my separation from my partner—the other parent of my boys. Alongside parenthood, I am in college and actively working on improving both my mental and physical health.
This blog exists to create a safe, informative space for anyone exploring gender identity, parenting as a transgender man, or simply seeking an honest perspective on personal growth and resilience.
