We have a beautiful conversation with Lauren's buddy, “Jay,” who tells us the story of his daughter’s coming out, and shares his own experience as a “cis hetero male dad” raising a trans child. At three years old, Jay’s AMAB (Assigned Male At Birth) daughter began giving “insistent, persistent, and consistent” signals that she felt she was a girl. Jay discusses what he and his wife observed in their daughter’s development, and speaks candidly about the challenges parents of trans kids face, including the "ticking clock behind big, hard decisions.” We’re so grateful to have had this conversation!

Some of the resources Jay mentions in this episode include:
“It Feels Good to Be Yourself: A Book about Gender Identity” by Theresa Thorn
“Sex Is a Funny Word” and “What Makes a Baby” by Cory Silverberg
