BGO E36 - No More Hiding: Wendy Cole on Coming Out at 67 and Finally Living Free

Trigger warning: This episode includes mention of suicidal ideation and mental health struggles. Please listen with care. What does it take to finally choose yourself after a lifetime of silence? In this unmissable episode of the Big Gay Overalls podcast, I sit down with the fierce, wise, and wonderfully honest Wendy Cole—transgender advocate, speaker, and transition mentor—who came out at 67 years old and completely rebuilt her life from scratch. From facing down psychiatric cruelty in the 1970s, to surviving suicidal ideation, to walking proudly into the world as her full self, Wendy’s story is not just one of gender identity—it’s a masterclass in courage, self-reinvention, and saying, “No more. I get to be me now.” We dive deep into the emotional, psychological, and social layers of transitioning later in life, why self-awareness and self-acceptance matter more than hormones or presentation, and how she finally found joy, connection, and love on the other side of pain. This isn’t just a conversation about being trans. It’s a conversation about being human. And if you’ve ever felt like you’ve lived your life at arm’s length—like you’ve been performing someone else's version of you—this one will hit you right in the gut (and then light a fire under it).
