Owning Pink is all about being unapologetically YOU so you can heal, connect, and thrive. But doing so isn’t always easy, and we all need role models.

I’d like to shine a light on Chaz Bono, who is Owning Pink so fearlessly that I’m in awe. Chaz Bono was born Chastity, but he never felt like a girl. As a tomboy child, he struggled to fit in, and as a teen, he decided he must be a lesbian. But that didn’t feel right either. Chaz just always felt like a man and suffered from the constant unsettling feeling that something just wasn’t right. So two years ago, Chastity announced that she planned to become Chaz.
