About this listen

Ever wondered how to start that conversation about gender identity with your family? You're not alone. In this episode, Connor and his mum Carolyn share their journey - from those first uncertain conversations to building a stronger relationship based on trust and understanding.

They share the real stuff: the worries, the wins, and the stuff they both wish they'd handled better. Whether you're questioning your gender or you love someone who is, their story offers honest insights and plenty of "wish we'd known that earlier" moments.

Quick Wisdom

If you're questioning: There's no race to figure it all out. Take it slow, try things out, and know that detours are all part of the story.

If you're a parent: You don't need to have all the answers - unconditional love is what it's all about. Listen lots, hug often, and don't stress about getting everything perfect all the time. Good intentions and a willingness to learn go a long way.
