Taking Flight : One Transgender Woman's Journey

Taking Flight: One Transgender Woman's Journey is a lifetime look at love, work, relationships, and dreams, peppered with wit and wisdom. It is the story about how one man became a woman at the age of 65. Ashley Anna Parks is a "Blended Spirit" who has never felt that she was born into the wrong body. In addition to her own transgender experience, Ashley writes about her work as an assistant facilitator of transition support groups for two years with the LGBTQIA+ Center in Las Vegas, NV.

Written for a broad audience, this book helps readers better understand what life is like as a transgender person, whether readers are transitioning themselves; are family members, friends, or coworkers; or are employers, health professionals, or community members. The stories are colorful and deeply honest-sometimes painfully raw-but always heartfelt. Wherever you describe yourself on the gender spectrum, this book will give you an opportunity to expand your own perspective through respect, inclusion, kindness and connection.
