A Full Circle Moment with Mya Byrne
We’re honored to welcome Mya Byrne back to Trans Heartbeat as our first episode of 2026, just as she was our very first guest when we launched the series last year.
In this episode, Mya reflects on her “Trans State of the Union” one year later, shares what she’s been creating, and speaks truth to the shifting political climate for trans folks and artists.
It’s a conversation filled with music, insight, and the steady heartbeat of trans resilience.
Watch the episode on YouTube now and feel the beat of a movement!
Also available on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
Hosted by TRACTION President Michelle Matlock, Trans Heartbeat celebrates and affirms trans+ existence, empowers responses to the rising tide of transphobic rhetoric in our country, and showcases the power of trans+ artistic expression.
Keep listening! Keep creating! Keep shining your light!
