Oops! They did it Again - How To Step In When Someone Gets It Wrong
In this episode, Kai and El explore one of those moments that many of us shy away from - the awkwardness of correcting someone else’s mistakes. It’s one thing to fix our own slip-ups, but what do we do when someone else makes an error? It's a daunting thought for a lot of people - especially in the context of gender diversity. Kai and El discuss how to navigate these situations with care and sensitivity, whether in a group or one-on-one. They also explore why it’s crucial to check in with the trans people in your life to understand how they prefer mistakes to be handled, rather than assuming what’s best. It’s a conversation about defensiveness, about understanding intent, and about finding the right way to respond, all while cultivating a deeper respect and empathy for those around us. If you’ve ever found yourself unsure how to respond, this episode has the advice you need to navigate these moments with empathy and understanding.
