On this episode of Breakfast with Tiffany Show, Tiffany Rossdale welcomes Vojhn Releigh Ilaguison, a remarkable transgender advocate from the Philippines. Vojhn, a cum laude graduate in business administration with a focus on human resource management, has used her academic journey and lived experiences to fuel her passion for advocacy. Specializing in LGBTQ+ rights and sexual health, Vojhn works closely with communities to raise awareness on SOGIE and sex characteristics. Her grassroots work has made a significant impact, and in this episode, she opens up about the challenges she's faced and the triumphs she's achieved.
As a transgender woman growing up in a highly religious society, Vojhn faced intense scrutiny and bullying for expressing her true self. She shares her emotional journey, from praying to Santo Niño to "cure" her queerness as a child, to ultimately finding strength in her identity as a trans woman. Vojhn's reflections on navigating a world that saw her as different, especially within the conservative religious framework of the Philippines, is deeply moving. Through her story, she reminds listeners of the importance of self-acceptance, resilience, and the need for safe spaces where people can be authentically themselves.
The conversation takes a turn toward lighter moments, as Vojhn reminisces about her childhood memories of playing house with her neighborhood friends, using blankets as dresses and rubber bands to fashion earrings. Tiffany and Vojhn reflect on the creativity and improvisation that LGBTQ+ kids often employ to express themselves, even in environments that may not fully accept them. Their exchange reveals the shared experiences that many queer individuals face during their formative years, and how these experiences shape their identities.
