As the holiday season approaches, it often brings with it a mix of high expectations and family dynamics that can be challenging, especially for families navigating their child's gender identity.
In this episode, originally aired in 2021, Sasha and I explore the complexities of family gatherings, big celebrations, and how to keep the holiday stakes low and manageable. They dive into the unique pressures some young people face around coming out during the holidays, or reconnecting with family members who may not yet be familiar with their new gender presentation.
Sasha and I also offer practical advice on how families can build a network of supportive, trusted adults who are genuinely invested in the child’s well-being. This conversation offers thoughtful insights and strategies for making the holidays more inclusive, understanding, and less stressful for everyone.
