Transparently Speaking

Meaning of a Name Fluidity: Balancing Advocacy, Privacy, and Protection (92)


Listen Later

What happens when a name becomes a risk factor? In this episode, we explore the emotional toll of parenting transgender children in a time of heightened scrutiny, the delicate balance between advocacy and safety, and the exhaustion of constantly weighing the risks of visibility. How do families decide when to speak up and when to stay quiet during a child's transition? And what does it mean to reset expectations with self-compassion in uncertain times?

Listen in as we unpack these challenges and consider what it means to protect, support, and sustain ourselves in the face of ongoing uncertainty.

If you’re taking something away from our podcast, we’d appreciate it if you’d take a moment to provide us with a review; the more listeners and reviews, the more people we can reach and support.
