In this eye-opening episode, Tiffanie sits down with Ami Herrick, a passionate advocate for the transgender community, to confront the harsh realities behind this staggering statistic. Together, they explore the deep trauma, rejection, and societal pressures that push so many trans individuals into despair.
    Ami bravely shares her journey—from battling identity struggles in an unaccepting world to developing a revolutionary perspective on gender that challenges traditional binaries. This conversation is raw, insightful, and essential for anyone seeking to understand the true cost of discrimination.

You’ll learn:
✔️ How society’s expectations fuel mental health crises in the trans community
✔️ The role of fundamentalism (both religious and secular) in reinforcing harmful divides
✔️ Why gender identity is more complex than you think—and how we can reframe it
✔️ The lifesaving power of acceptance, support, and open dialogue

Ami’s candid insights and Tiffanie’s deep-dive questions will challenge your perspectives and inspire you to become part of the solution. This episode isn’t just about awareness—it’s a call to action.
