Good Day I am a CEO who for image reasons cannot come out of the closet as it were. But it dosent change who I feel like on the inside. I have always felt like a women on the inside. Even as a child But I grew up in the south, and such things down there are a lot less tolerated. Then I joined the marine corps and that community even shunned such life choices even more. After that I started a start-up then decided to take off. All that time thinking that I was simply broken because of said past life experiences. But as I get older and feel more trapped, I realized that I am not alone. After reading posts on this site for the past few months I feel this would be a save place to let me be who I am. I hope to get to know a few of you on here and feel less trapped. But time will tell so to start I am simply saying hello. P.S. Please excuse me for my grammar and spelling, normally I have a staff member fix such things.
Welcome to EC! Wish I could be of help with the whole CEO image thing, but for now feel free to message me. Oh and I love your signature. I send love and hugs! <3 xoxo
Don't think for a second that just because you're in a CEO seat that you can't come out - many people have thought just that, and they've found that they're very wrong, and now have become huge advocates of coming out for people at all levels of seniority in organizations. Lord John Browne is a good example of this, and has written an entire book on the topic. Admittedly, he is gay and you are trans*, so the stigma is probably different - I wouldn't personally know, being gay myself AND out at work in a very supportive environment.
