In her hometown, Six visits a night shelter where she was first homeless while transitioning. She discovers the place has changed immeasurably to meet the needs of today’s more gender-diverse population.

After revisiting her hometown of Hamilton, Six reflects on coming out trans, becoming homeless, finding shelter and studying for a journalism degree. She decides to visit her mum.
