Today Sam and I interviewed Kendahl Lyn and Elle Murtagh about their experiences as non binary folks. We cover a lot in this episode and we also go over in time because this is such an important conversation. Non binary folks are an important part of the community and we don't hear enough of their stories - so please forgive us for the long episode.
One more thing, a bit of a trigger warning. There is some very brief mention of physical and sexual abuse, as part of Kendahl an dElle's stories. If these are triggering topics for you, consider skippinbrief moments.

Today Sam and I talk about our coming out stories and our motivations for doing this podcast and other work for the trans community. Coming out is an important process and one that looks different for everyone who comes out. We hope you will enjoy our stories, but please remember that these are our experiences and are not the experiences of every trans person. On this podcast, in coming episodes, you'll get to hear many more coming out stories. Our hope is that thsi podcast will be a place where people can listen to a wide range of incredible stories about transfolks.
Here are some great resources from one of our favorite organizations, the National Center for Transgender Equality, that offer great informaiton about trans folks (for anyone wanting more information) and about supporting trans folks in your life:
