Navigating Parenthood and Gender Transition

In this eye-opening episode of EZ Conversations, I welcome an inspiring guest, Victoria Pelletier. Join us as we delve into a meaningful topic: parenting through a child's gender transition. Victoria Pelletier takes us on a journey through her family's experience as they navigate the uncharted waters of their child's gender transition. As a guest who brings vulnerability, Victoria shares her story authentically, offering listeners a rare glimpse into the challenges of this journey.

In this conversation, Victoria discusses her initial emotions upon learning about her child's desire to transition. She opens up about her personal growth, the moments of uncertainty, and the deep bond between her and her child as they've navigated this path together. Using her experiences, Victoria paints a picture of parents' responsibilities in these circumstances.

Join us for a conversation encouraging understanding and a different perspective as we learn from Victoria Pelletier's parenting journey. While I have different views about this subject, I was curious to hear Victoria's approach.

Towards the end of the episode, Victoria and I also discuss her views and work in the Diversity and Inclusion space. Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) is an area I have thought about, and I was interested in hearing Victoria's views.
