This week, Alex and Emely talk about Elliot Page announcing he's transgender. To discuss this, they're joined by a guest, Trans Advocating Therapist and Educator, Van Ethan Levy! Van talks about the importance of representation in media, the impact public figures coming out has on the trans community and more.
Van's goal with their work is to help provide education to create safer and more affirming spaces. They're also the author of an interactive book called Exploring My Identity(ies).
