In this episode of Trans Heartbeat, Michelle sits down with Jaelynn Scott, Executive Director of Lavender Rights Project, a Black trans feminist organization rooted in community organizing, housing justice, and liberation work in Washington and beyond. Together, we explore what it means to lead with care, move systems, and center those most impacted, while remembering that trans people are not a debate, but human beings living full, complex lives. This is a conversation about justice, community, and how we show up for one another in real time.
