Elisabeth Spencer on new beginnings

A few days after Elisabeth Spencer's daughter Milly came out as trans, her husband was diagnosed with a terminal illness.



Spencer's moving memoir of what followed, The Road to My Daughter, is an illuminating account of what it means to be the mother of a trans daughter, and in this podcast we chat about everything from the prejudice trans people face in the healthcare system, to the ways in which their relationship has changed.

The Road to My Daughter is now available to buy on the Biteback website or wherever you get your books: https://www.bitebackpublishing.com/books/the-road-to-my-daughter
