S1E11 How Do We Celebrate?

In this episode, I reflect on celebrating Pride Month amidst global turmoil, including conflicts in Gaza, Sudan, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and Ukraine. I discuss the impact of these crises on vulnerable populations, especially children, and the significance of advocating for LGBTQ rights during an election year that could shape the future of human rights. The episode emphasizes the importance of balancing celebration with activism, encouraging listeners to support humanitarian efforts and participate in political advocacy to protect and advance LGBTQ rights. *Discretion is advised as we may touch on sensitive topic matter.

S1E10 Cats are Afraid of Cucumbers

Join me while I speak with Keola. Keola is a part of my ʻohana as well as my self-appointed Kumu of all things ʻŌlelo and Native culture.

S1E9 Just Me and I

Join me for my most intimate conversation yet. It’s actually just me, a cis, het presenting woman. I DO have a lot to say, although I just chipped the tip of the iceberg in this episode. I do touch on sensitive subject matter, as well as some triggering topics. Discretion is advised. If you're struggling with your mental health, please call 1-877-565-8860 or visit. 988lifeline.org [http://988lifeline.org] for more resources. As always, nothing said here is medical advice, but lived experience by individuals within a community.

S1E8 I Made That

Welcome and Thank you for joining us for Troubles & Transitions in the Healthcare Hustle. Join me while I chat with Kailey. Kailey is my 15 year old child, who has been aware, vocal, and straight forward about their gender identity since they were 3. I’ve done my best to follow their lead and will always be learning and doing things better. We did not discuss any questions prior to recording, with the exception of boundaries they wanted to set. Kailey has been, and will always be, the driving force behind my passion for what I do and are the reason I will, unstoppably, change the world. If you are a parent of a trans kid, I’d be happy to connect with you to share my experience, however this is not about me, or any other parent. This is about our trans youth and doing better for them. We may touch on sensitive subject matter, as well as some triggering topics. Discretion is advised. If you’re struggling with your mental health, please call 1-877-565-8860 or visit. 988lifeline.org [http://988lifeline.org] for more resources. As always, nothing said here is medical advice, but lived experience by individuals within a community. Again, welcome, and I’m so glad you’re here.
