Recording a podcast on a day the world is shattered.

Our obsession with measuring in terms of education - what I'm going to endeavour to achieve in this podcast series.  How I feel the Transgender Journey is the penultimate development journey.  The article I speak about in relation to the Paralympics opposed to how we just normalise males or females in the Olympics.

This proves Louise Hays thinking that Thyroid conditions are due to suppression of expression.  Why I focus so much on giving people a way to express themselves.  Why I don't agree you have long term inability to form good relationships.

The Cro...

Why I dislike labels - the legacy left behind after the reports and the assumptions.  The judgements that are thrown out by people who don't have your processing challenges. Who have no idea how your brain works or how to actually support you. We only ever focus on what we can't do.  But increasingly the personality content online is inaccurate and doesn't represent Myers-Briggs's work. But the li...
