  • Dosing Deep Dive, Part 1

    Thank you for the fabulous feed back on the testostesterone lecture. Someone asked me for more details on how I dose. Since dosing is so individualized, I decided to sit down with one of my colleagues, so we could go over cases together. I think this is one of the most informative episodes to date. Big thank you to Dr. Upton (they/them) of QueerDoc. Don't miss part two!

  • The Intersection of Disability, Transness, and Sex

    Learn with me and Grayson Schultz (he/they) about the intersection of disabilty, traness, and sex. Clinicians these are the things we wish you knew, but maybe put us on double speed because we could talk forever.

     

    Often called a mindful troublemaker, Grayson Schultz is an activist, educator, researcher, and writer currently living on the stolen and unceded lands of the Osage and Shawnee tribal nations in southeastern Ohio. From his day job creating DEIB educational content at PowerToFly to projects working with research groups, organizations, and collaboratives, Grayson enjoys focusing on how we can best advocate for communities that are forcibly, systematically, and continually oppressed. As a transgender, queer, disabled, and neurodivergent human, he is most focused on the topics of LGBTQIA2S+ health and wellbeing, sex education, chronic illness and disability, disparities in healthcare, oppression, systems change, DEIB efforts, and liberation. Grayson also runs Chronic Sex, an award-winning website and podcast focused on discussing living well with disability, including a focus on relationships and sexual health. In his free time, Grayson enjoys cooking, gaming, and renovating his first home with his partner and two helper dogs, Hank and Dean.

  • Somatic Sex Education and Surrogate Partner Therapy | S01E10

    Join me as I host this amazing episode of QueerCME with Katherine Yeagel (any) who is a Surrogate Partner Therapist and Somatic Sex Educator. Katherine is a surrogate partner, somatic sex educator, and queer sex & relationship coach. They live amongst the beautiful rivers and rolling hills of Western Massachusetts on Nipmuc and Pocomtuc land. When they are not thinking, talking, and learning about sexual healing, they spend a lot of time in the woods with my dog, practicing fiddle, and making challah.

    They found this field after becoming jaded with my 9-to-5 job at a nonprofit, where they were frequently given the feedback that they weren’t “professional” enough. As someone who lives in their emotions and relishes authentic relationships, they were drawn to this work largely because it presented an opportunity to be my full, genuine self with my clients. They view themself as a guide and companion more so than a practitioner, and they develop meaningful, genuine relationships with each of my clients.
