Schuyler Bailar thought the hardest part was over when he came out as transgender. But it turned out to be just the start of his journey toward acceptance as the first openly transgender athlete to compete on a Division 1 college men's team. In this talk, he explains what keeps him going through difficult times, whether it's a grueling practice, a potentially career-ending injury or talking to his conservative grandmother about being trans.
