Episode Notes

This week I spoke to Rae McDaniel, a non-binary gender and sex therapist who works with transgender/non-binary/questioning folks who feel lost while transitioning their gender identity. Rae is the founder of Practical Audacity, a gender and sex therapy practice in Chicago. They also provide training in trans-affirming care for medical and mental health professionals and they hold a Masters of Education in community counseling. Our conversation covers how learning to communicate directly in sex impacts clearer communication elsewhere as well, the importance of sex education and resources, naming fear rather than ignoring it, approaching gender from a place of curiosity (not only for trans and NB folks but for everyone), and much more. I loved talking to Rae and I’m excited for you to listen.
