Hi! Gem here with a list of items I bought for my upcoming non-binary breast surgery (nine days, eee!). Lots of helpful items and some coping ideas for anxiety that I've gleaned from therapy, r/reduction, and my obsessive YouTube search on the subject of anesthesia. Hope you enjoy this mini-update.

Listen along as Gem goes to their surgery consult, preps, gets scared, tries to get through it, goes to therapy, and pays their surgery fees.
Trigger warning, brief talk about needles/IVs, exposure therapy, and a little longer talk about eating disorders, from 10:36 to 12:30.

Jules has had some interesting changes on the HRT front.

Hey, it’s Gem! 
Are you worried about medical procedures?? Meeeee too. Let's talk about it.

Gem has an exciting announcement! 

(No, they are not pregnant.)

We have been listening to our first episodes again, as is tradition. Things have changed for Jules. And she’s hopeful that the world is becoming more trans friendly. 

Jules and Gem take you along with them to their local Pride festival. We get free mom hugs, stickers, hooked up with a support group, and misgendered?? 

Jules and Gem are prepping for their first post-covid Pride, and hype up a new insertable sex toy. 

Some of you may know Madeline Gregg from Tiktok; she often talks about "smex education" in an understandable way. Well today we welcome her parter Pat to our show! Pat grew up and lives in the south, recently came out as non-binary and began their HRT journey. We had a fascinating conversation stretching from polyamory to cartography. Join us!

Jules and Gem have some common-sense ideas for helping make society more trans-friendly, even if you're not trans yourself. Jules discusses how she gained confidence to outwardly transition. We wrap up with a request for submissions to share your story or suggest a trans person we should interview.
