“How We Do Family: Transgender Possibilities in 2025” with Trystan Reese
Trystan Reese is a transgender storyteller whose journey of love and resilience has delighted audiences worldwide. He’ll be bringing that story to our congregation, and we are overjoyed to welcome him as he shares his experiences of transgender pregnancy and what it was like to carry that pregnancy publicly in 2017. Trystan is based in Portland, Oregon, where he writes, parents, and works with communities interested in fostering belonging and compassion.
Guest Speaker Bio: Trystan Reese is an award-winning author, facilitator, and coach focusing on diversity, equity, and inclusion. He has been organizing with the trans community for nearly two decades, serving on the frontlines of this generation’s most significant fights for LGBTQ+ justice. An accomplished storyteller, Trystan has toured with The Moth MainStage’s renowned team; the video of his Brooklyn performance has garnered over 2.6 million views online, and his story was subsequently included in The Moth’s 2024 anthology, A Point Of Beauty.
