"The author, Tracee McDaniel, is the CEO and Founder of Juxtaposed Center for Transformation, Incorporated in Atlanta, Georgia.
Tracee's life and mission provide her with the insight to advocate for all transgender and gender non-conforming people.
"Transitions" is her journey. Tracee moves us intricately through her labyrinth of life challenging experiences. She brings us up close and personal to our opinions and perceptions of the transgender community; she enlightens us to the common inherent in us all."
In 2014, I interviewed Tracee and this is what she told me when asked about her inspirations: "I was inspired by ex-pro basketball player John Amaechi. I also wanted to tell my story in my own words to possibly inspire a young person identifying as transgender or gender non-conforming.
Which aspects of my biography could be used by other transgender women planning their transitions? Quite frankly, the entire boon could be used by those planning to transition. The fact that I was born and raised in South Carolina with no positive role models to emulate, yet I’ve managed to excel and thrive against all odds to persevere over the numerous societal roadblocks and adversities."
