Am I Trans Enough? The answer is undoubtably yes. You are.

Alo Johnston has been where you are. From watching every transition story on YouTube and navigating online message boards for answers to finally starting testosterone and transitioning himself, he now walks alongside you every step of the way to guide you towards acceptance of who you truly are.

Born out of thousands of hours of research and conversations with hundreds of trans people, Am I Trans Enough? digs deep into internalized transphobia and the historical narratives that fuel it. It unveils what happens after you come out, or begin questioning living as a trans person, in a world that works against you.

Use this book as a space to engage with your fears and explore your doubts without the pressure of needing to be a perfect trans representative. If you are just beginning your trans journey, are twenty years into transition or have no idea if you are even trans at all, this book will help you

to become your most authentic self.

Reviews for Am I Trans Enough?: How to Overcome Your Doubts and Find Your Authentic Self

Alo Johnston has crafted a beautifully written guide that is both heart-centered and grounded in cultural and historical context. As a reader, I felt like I was being invited into a powerful conversation not just about individual identity, but about collective care and community. Alo's writing is knowledgable, generous, honest, and accessible. I'm so grateful this book exists in the world! -- Sand Chang, PhD (they/them), psychologist, DEI consultant
