(Pride month may be over 🏳️‍🌈) but season 3 of the podcast isn't! And now I want to share another incredible episode featuring the impressive Lee Mariño Clyne (they/he/elle/él), co-founder of @queercareinc! The organization has been reshaping the recovery and support options that LGBTQ+ people, particularly who are transgender identifying, can have related to their surgical care. We talk about the growth of the volunteer network supporting the organization, how staying in community is important for recovery, and the value of trans-led activism for trans folx.

It's been a while since the last Lived Experiences episode.. and we're back! I had the joy of sitting and speaking with the incredibly passionate and inspiring queer pediatrician, also known as Mama Beast, Dr. Lulu 😊 (she/her)..Dr. Lulu and I discuss her experiences:

• writing the book, About Your Black, Transgender Child
• being involved in consulting and public speaking efforts related to LGBTQ+ matters
• what it means to be an ally
• starting a podcast herself titled Moms 4 Trans Kids (which I find very sweet 🥹).

I think this episode will be especially appealing to parents of queer youth who are in different stages of understanding their child. Hope you enjoy!!

Join our conversation as we discuss how gender affirming care is ANY care informed by the lived experiences of trans and gender diverse people. We also talk about how Plume is improving ways for this care to be more equitable and easier to reach people in the midst of barriers that may limit this access at the state and/or federal level.
