June is Pride Month. In this episode we chat with Claire McCully. Claire is an English professor, LGBTQIA activist, speaker, writer, a parent of 6, and a proud trans woman. Claire is also a TedX speaker, and has written an opinion article that was published on CNN. In this episode Claire not only shares her vulnerable story of transitioning, but we also chat about activism, having transformative conversations, and how important it is to share stories like hers in our current political climate. Lastly, she shares her wisdom for anyone out there who's in the closet, questioning, or transitioning.
