It’s Mardi Gras time in Sydney. The theme this year is Rise, and after such a tough 12 months there is plenty to rise for, especially as this is one of the first major Pride events to be staged around the world since COVID-19 started.
Kate Doak is a transgender woman living out and proud in Sydney and is passionate about ending transphobia and other forms of discrimination experienced by the LGBTIQ+ community. She is a freelance investigative journalist and news producer at Network 10 and is a strong advocate of mental health and LGBTIQ+ rights.
She sits down with Narelda Jacobs for a frank, honest and open conversation about her journey.
