About this episode
This week, Mal sits down with comedian and activist Esther Falick, a trans woman navigating her journey of identity and family. Esther opens up about the challenges of gaining her parents’ acceptance and the bittersweet moment when her father finally embraced her—just before he passed away. She also shares the story of losing everything in an apartment fire and how she rebuilt her life from scratch. This episode is a raw, honest look at identity, loss, and resilience.
