Jade Bird is a writer, musician, and performer, who is preparing to release her second album at just 23 years old. She is one of the first artists to have gone on a mini-tour of the American South this spring, and the "Just Something About Her" team was able to get an exclusive backstage pass!

Jennifer and Jade talk about what it's like to perform after more than a year in quarantine and how audiences are responding. Jade explains what led to her landing a record deal at age 18, her complicated introduction to music, and how falling in love has influenced her upcoming album. Plus, a sneak peak at some of Jade's new songs!

This week, we're taking you back to our very first episode of "Just Something About Her" with guest Charlotte Clymer, a writer, veteran, and activist. In this episode, she shares her journey coming out as a trans woman and some of the confusion and dark periods that led her there, including her time in the military. She sheds light on some of the discrimination and misconceptions she's faced since coming out, like being asked to show her ID before entering the bathroom in a D.C. bar.

But most importantly, Charlotte shares the freedom, joy, and pride she feels embracing her womanhood and living as her true self. Trans stories are often lost in our discussion of the LGBTQIA community. Or they’re too often told from the lens of tragedy and discrimination. But Charlotte's story is one of resilience, introspection, growth, and radiance, and one we're proud to share in light of Pride Month.
