<p>Despite what his parents told him, at the age of four, Seth Compton knew he was not a girl. But it wasn’t until the age of 43 that Seth made the biggest decision of his life — to transition from female to male. In this episode, Seth shares the personal, social, professional, and medical factors that shaped his decision, and also the people that inspired him — including mainstream media personalities like Ellen Degeneres, other community members, and most importantly, his wife and two kids. Seth believes his journey is different because he had a lot more support than many others who choose this pathway, especially as a child. In 2019, Seth founded OUTLoud North Bay as a community centre for 2SLGBTQ youth in Northern Ontario. </p><br><p>Seth’s new book, “A Life In Two Halves,” is on pre-order <a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdaVUI12a2JmAcZZ0zHOrwgJYdBtwkOZUsUjUWDk9cV97pTNQ/viewform?usp=send_form" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">now</a>!</p><p>The Human Challenge is hosted and produced by <a href="vanessaferlaino.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Vanessa Ferlaino</a>.
