Something that is talked about often is the physical transition that trans-men make when we have gender-affirming surgeries. But you never really hear about the mental and emotional transitions we have to make. Or the transitions our families and loved ones have to make with us.

Fleming (he/him) is a Licensed Practical Nurse. He is also the CEO and Founder of Stealth Bros. and Co., a luxury Dopp Kit supply company that provides travel and at-home personal storage for hormone replacement therapy and other medical necessities. We are also changing the industry by making sharps containers more unique, so the people who use them every day don’t feel so hospitalized. He started in 2017 from his room to create a way to become a part of the transgender community and help raise money for his own top surgery. Stealth Bros. and Co. continues to grow and serve the transgender and allied communities. He even offers a support fund for those in the LGBT community in need, and his company is a proud Certified LGBT Business Enterprise of NGLCC. By sharing his experiences, Braxton hopes to inspire other trans people on their journeys and fill a gap in the representation of trans people of color.@StealthBrosCo for all social media platformswww.StealthBrsCo.com@Sire.Brax for my personal platform Episode References:Mazzoni Center - Philadelphia FTM BrotherhoodPoint of PridePoint 5ccAydian Dowlinggc2bAre you enjoying the Dem Bois Podcast?
