    Ep 016 Suzy Whyte: Come Into My Closet
    Mar 22 2026
    Hello gorgeous, and welcome back to Gurl Talk. I'm Jenny Raven, and I need to warn you, this one's going to get right under your skin. Have tissues nearby. And maybe a glass of something strong.My guest is the wonderful Susy Whyte, a trans crossdresser from Scotland who has been on one hell of a journey. Decades of hiding, purging, panicking, and pretending, and then, finally, letting the light in. If you've ever felt stuck between who the world expects you to be and who you really are, this conversation is for you.We start with our deliciously naughty quickfire questions, and then we go somewhere much deeper. Suzy talks about coming out to a colleague on a whim, the 700-person conference call where she introduced herself to the world, the "great purge" of 2015 when she believed Susie was dead forever, and the quiet, powerful act of therapy that changed everything.But here's what will stay with me. Suzy doesn't talk about coming out of the closet. She talks about inviting people in. Into her TARDIS, because, as she so perfectly puts it, it's bigger on the inside.This episode made me laugh, made me emotional, and reminded me exactly why I do this podcast.
