About this episode
It's our third year anniversary of Trandescendant Podcast! And boy, do we have a shocking episode for you. We decided to expand our podcast from two to three generations. And this might surprise you, but Rya has a transgender son. This is his story. You might expect that having a transgender parent would make the journey easier for a transgender child, but the reality is far more complex. Each person's path to authenticity looks different, even within the same family. Kelly shares how college transformed his confidence and allowed him to step fully into his identity, while Rya reflects on her own very different transition experience. Joe offers the rare perspective of a grandfather who has supported two family members through transition, revealing insights that only come from walking this path multiple times.
