I second this! I'm really proud of who I am - I work in a rainbow community org and am really proud of the work I do, too. I've been out for a decade or so and two years ago I barely thought about being trans any more - it's just a part of who I am. But the big increase in anti-trans rhetoric (here in Aotearoa - significant but still not close to what's happening in the states) mean that I have to be more mindful and more aware of it, not in the least because my role means I do lots of work in the areas that have some of the biggest negative attention - healthcare, schools, bathrooms and changing rooms.
