Transparently Speaking
We are Diana and Joy - two moms who each supported their children to transition in early elementary school to become their true selves. We are using our voices to reflect our child’s voices, and have navigated everything from family and friends, to health care offices and schools. We are here to share our experience and our learning along this transgender journey, to provide support and guidance, parent-to-parent, and if you find yourself on a similar journey, we want you to know that you are not alone. Beyond parenting, we are also excited about building a community of allies and chosen family who will stand together with us, Transparently Speaking.

Episode 104
A physician dad shares how politics are disrupting research, parenting transgender kids, and the sports debate.
In this episode, Diana sits down with her husband, Arthur, a physician researcher and parent, to talk about how today’s shifting policies and headlines affect real families. Together, they cover three big themes:
- The ripple effects of political decisions on medical research and patient care
- What it means for parents of transgender kids to prepare and protect their families
- The science, myths, and realities behind the transgender sports debate
This candid conversation sheds light on how systemic changes impact everyday lives, and what families and allies can keep in mind moving forward.
