Monika: Hey there, and thanks for tuning in! Today’s conversation is going to be nothing short of inspiring. I'm excited to introduce you to Chelsea Brickham, an American model, beauty pageant queen, and actress who’s been boldly sharing her transition story with the world. Born in Maryland, Chelsea had quite the adventurous childhood, growing up in Texas and even living in Japan with her military family. After 14 years in the engineering field in New Hampshire, she took a leap of faith, turning her cosplay and modeling hobby into a full-fledged acting career. Most recently, she debuted as Kellie Maloney in Knockout Blonde: The Kellie Maloney Story, a documentary about the iconic British transgender boxing manager. Chelsea, it’s such an honor to have you here today!
Chelsea: Thank you so much for this opportunity to speak about my experiences! It’s a pleasure to join you.
