CW: Brief Mention of Suicide rates in Trans community 

Danni Barnum is a nonbinary, autistic, and fiercely protective individual. They write poetry, play a few instruments, and keep their hands busy with crafts. His genuine honesty makes them an open book (maybe an audiobook on speaker), and they use their story to advocate for mental health and LGBTQ+ issues.

During this episode, you will hear Danni talk about:

• The story the behind a crystal necklace he was given during a stay in Toronto
• The importance of having elders in one’s life, especially in the LGBT community since  there is a generation of people that are missing 
• How they take the lesson, “Stones are meant to be given,” to heart
