We Gotta Talk: News, Issues, and Beauty for Women

107: WE GOTTA TALK... KIDS AND GENDER. Moms of Trans Kids Open Up on Their Paths to Understanding and Acceptance


Listen Later

This week we gotta talk... KIDS AND GENDER. And listen guys... the revelations and "aha" moments on this episode SHOOK me. It's good. So good.

Actress, writer, coach and proud mom of a trans child, Dahn Ballard, as well as parent/teen coach and proud LGBTQ+ mom Vanessa Baker, are opening up BIG time, not only on their children's courses to their true authenticity, but also the conversations they had to have with THEMSELVES to understand their children's journeys. They are so full of wisdom and patience in walking us through their stories--how their kids came out, what they felt, how they came to a point of understanding and acceptance, and so much more--and I'm incredibly grateful for them opening up so candidly to me.

Why this topic? Because understanding is key to evolution. Even if this issue doesn't touch you or your family personally, I PROMISE you will walk away with a broader and more compassionate understanding of this complex issue.

Let's all learn together!
