Show Notes
Buckle up for an eye-opening episode of the Parent Advocate as Stephen and Lizette welcome clinical psychologist and interfaith minister Dr. MaryBeth Napier. In this powerful interview, Dr. Napier shares her 25-year journey providing gender-affirming care and the challenges she's faced navigating the ever-changing political landscape.
Today's Topics tackle the alarming rollbacks of transgender rights, from Google's removal of cultural events to the NCAA's discriminatory sports policy. We also spotlight the CDC's shameful directive to erase transgender identities from public health research.
But it's not all doom and gloom - our Ally of the Week is Delta Airlines, who's doubling down on diversity despite political pressure. On the flip side, the Asshole of the Week goes to CDC Chief Science Officer Dr. Sam Posner for leading the charge to censor transgender terminology.
Tune in as Stephen, Lizette, and Dr. Napier provide a powerful dose of resilience, community, and hope in the face of relentless attacks on the LGBTQIA+ community.
