Making It Awkward

Re-release!: Making It Awkward at UCSF's Trans Health Summit, with Calvin Gilbert, FNP


Listen Later

This podcast’s origin story! Originally airing 10/26/23 Jessica is joined by nurse practitioner Calvin Gilbert to recount their presentation about weight stigma in trans care at UCSF’s 2023 Trans Health Summit and what led to a medical doctor being escorted out of the room. Jessica talks with Calvin about what happened the previous day and why it motivated her to start Making it Awkward and make a name tag for herself that says “Arts and Crafts Manager.”

Jessica is returning to the same conference this week! She will be wearing her name tag and looking for the same people she met the first time around and if anything has changed. She will be making it awkward and reporting back if anything else entertaining happens!

There are two more episodes about BMI and trans care following this one: 

The Research on BMI and Gender Affirming Care

Is Non-binary Identity a 3rd Gender Category?; USPATH Conference Reflections
