Nicola Jane Chase has kindly taken time out of her Australian holiday from NY to have a talk with Michelle and Megsy about her book “Tea and Transition”. As she says herself, “Equipped with my British heritage, Asian connections, and a New York State of Mind, I transversed three continents to confront my past life as a DJ and broadcaster and my future one, with a new voice.”

The three ladies discuss martinis on top of the world, the pyramids at dawn, fireworks over Hong Kong and high-speed motorbike rides through Asian back streets. But Tea and Transition is far more than another right-soul-in-the-wrong-body tale or globetrotting travelogue. This is a wonderfully personal journey through places beyond the physical. Of change and the human spirit, love and family values, and how one man became one woman.
