🎥 Behind the scenes of our TDOR episode, we had a powerful teachable moment. 🌈

During filming, our director misgendered one of our participants. Instead of reacting, we paused to create a space for understanding and education about nonbinary pronouns and identity.

This clip reminds us that even in moments of discomfort, there’s an opportunity to grow and deepen our respect for one another. Learning to honor people’s identities is an ongoing process, and showing compassion while correcting mistakes is essential to fostering inclusivity.

Let’s keep holding ourselves and each other accountable with love and patience. 💕

In honor of Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDOR) 2024, this powerful podcast episode celebrates the strength, resilience, and love within the trans community. Centered on the theme "LOVE IS LIBERATION," this episode explores how love serves as a revolutionary tool for change, drawing inspiration from Bell Hooks' All About Love.

Join us as we reflect on the experiences and insights of trans and nonbinary femmes, guided by stories of solidarity, sisterhood, and the shared fight for justice. Through heartfelt conversations and transformative storytelling, this episode amplifies the voices of those leading the charge for liberation, while honoring the lives we've lost and the legacies they leave behind.

Tune in to witness the unbreakable bonds of community, the courage to live authentically, and the unwavering commitment to a brighter future. Together, we remember, we celebrate, and we continue the fight for a world where every trans life is valued and loved.
