Having done so, I assure you it is an empowering experience. A public-runway walk is a unique opportunity to demonstrate to the world who you and gain supreme confidence in yourself.
The opportunity for this experience is an annual gift to the transgender community from Michelle Hirsch. As leader of the First Event Fashion Show hosted by the Trans Community of New England (TCNE), she’s appreciated for advancing transgender people (women and men including young people) on their personal journey.
To help Transliving International readers learn more about amazing Michelle, she’s answered some frequently asked questions.
You’re busy. How do you know it is all worth it?
I’m selfish. Everything I do brings me joy: work, making music, and supporting the trans community. I thrive on the positive energy and vibes of others, so I seek to create and channel that energy towards me!
Describe a normal day
It’s sad to reflect on how different today is from before Covid-19. I work from home until 5:00 PM, go to the gym, make dinner, do a few small chores, then spend a few minutes in a hot tub soaking or watching TV before bed. Other than an occasional evening online meeting, that’s today’s routine.
A pre-Covid-19 day involved in-person meetings, and band rehearsal, or a gig, after work a few nights a week. In-person time with friends, TCNE, and music-making are sorely missed.

BREE FRAM - Blazing trails to build a stronger military
U.S. Space Force Lt. Colonel Bree Fram will be remembered as a trailblazer for a transgender-inclusive military. This was not so obvious when we met about six years ago. However, she's well on her way to earn that distinction with a public track record of advocacy and leadership.
Sophie's 20 years later
In 2018 I was crowned Miss TLi and I won it on my first attempt - and first Eastbourne event for that matter - dressed as "Minnie Mouse", and after being a judge in 2019 there was something that stopped the following 2 years' events taking place... I can't quite remember what that was though??
VICTORIA'S SECRETS
Actress VICTORIA GIGANTE has, many times, appeared on stage and screen; and her photographs have adorned gallery walls around the world - but she feels like she hasn't done enough. As her new play 'Miss Philippines' is about to hit London's West End, WARREN CHRISTOPHER HALLETT meets this multi-talented sensation to find out why - and then some.
Project 5.0
