Wynne Nowland, chairwoman and CEO of Bradley & Parker, is a thought leader, change advocate, and experienced corporate insurance professional.

I watched the clock turn to 8:59. Fifty-nine minutes earlier, I’d hit send on an email letting my staff know that I was coming into work for the first time as a woman. I, Wynne, would be at work around 9 a.m. As far back as I can remember, I’ve always been drawn to the female experience. I wanted to play with dolls and the Easy Bake Oven. I wanted to look cute like the girls. I didn’t want to hang with the boys.

But, as I like to say, it took me a long time to bake, just like one of those Easy Bake ovens. I went through all the fear, anxiety and emotion that most trans people go through. How would coming out affect my life? Are my friends going to be able to understand? Is my mother going to talk to me?
