Episode discusses youth suicide
This episode I spoke to Dr. Lulu who shares her personal experiences and challenges arising from the intersecting identities she carries.
With doors closed due to societal biases, she has taken it upon herself to build her own doors and leave them open for others.
Dr. Lulu also opens up about her personal journey of accepting her child's sexuality, highlighting the responsibility she feels to tell the truth and speak out. The high rate of suicide among transgender individuals due to parental rejection is a prominent concern that she addresses, emphasizing the importance of parental acceptance and support.
With an unwavering commitment to challenging stereotypes and misconceptions, Dr. Lulu encourages genuine curiosity and learning, urging individuals to educate themselves through accessible resources like search engines. Her ultimate goal is to help parents accept and support their LGBTQ+ children, fostering a society of love and acceptance.
