Have you ever wondered about the journey of transition, or have questions about it that you're afraid to ask? We're Red and Freckles, your trans agony aunts, ready to address your queries, thoughts, and concerns. Join us as we set the stage to celebrate the diversity and beauty of being trans, and shed light on every facet of the transition journey – from hormone replacement therapy (HRT) to changing your name and beyond.
In a serious exploration of the struggles faced by trans individuals in the UK, we share heart-rending stories of daunting wait times at gender identity clinics, and how the healthcare system is falling short. Meanwhile, shining a ray of hope, we discuss Beyonce's empowering support for the trans community and the unique Seahorse Parents Project, a beautiful tribute to heavily pregnant transgender parents, and share the curious tale of a mason jar used in an unusual way. We even touch upon our highly anticipated book 'How to Transition' – a comprehensive guide that aims to answer all your queries, and more, about transitioning. So listen in, share your stories, and join us on our quest to foster understanding and acceptance of trans identities.
