Finalmente io by Sarah Jessica Zucca is a deeply personal and moving work that brings to light the complex and often misunderstood subject of gender dysphoria. Through her own story, Sarah J invites readers to enter a world where identity and biology do not coincide, where the soul and the body speak two different languages, and where the journey toward alignment becomes both an act of courage and self-love. The author’s intention is not only to narrate her transformation but also to educate, to clear away the misconceptions that surround what she rightly describes as a medical condition present from birth.
Gender dysphoria, as Sarah explains, is not a whim or a phase. It is a condition in which a person finds themselves imprisoned in a body that does not reflect their true essence. A child may appear outwardly healthy, but within them lives a soul that does not correspond to the gender assigned at birth. For many, this incongruity is evident from the earliest years, expressed through gestures, preferences, and an unshakeable sense that something essential does not match. Although these cases are relatively rare, they carry profound implications for those who experience them.
