In this episode, Jess covers the medical community’s impact on conversion therapy, the devastating practice that has distorted how we view the LGBT+ community and has been emotionally, physically, and mentally harmful to its victims. 

Trigger warning: please approach this episode with caution if you are a member of the LGBT+ community or love someone who has been a victim of conversion therapy.
