Here is my vision for this space - I want there to be time for youth and parents to share their stories and experiences seperately in their own groups and then bring the two together to allow everyone to share in the larger group.

For context on this format - when I was 17 years old I was caught drinking at a party and was required to go to group meetings with 3 other minors who were caught drinking underage as well. Our parents were involved in the process. We used a similar format and I felt it really helped us to share honestly, openly and authentically with each other.

Why do I share this? Well, I think there is a growing problem in our society with drug and alcohol abuse at a very young age. Often time happens for youth who feel deeply misunderstood or not very seen by their parents who they are often seeking the most support and love from.

I didn't know it then about my deeper truths around gender but I was struggling a lot with my sexuality. Identity is a huge topic for youth and parents are learning a lot. I think it is so important for families to do it together in a setting where there are helpful people to navigate conversations and to hear from other peoples stories because I think there is often so much overlap in experiences.

With my leadership and faciliation work as a coach, tutor, advisor for trans folks, teenagers, adults struggling with many life challenges and those seeking tangible spiritual support + my personal experiences transitioning over the last few years I feel I can create a really amazing group experience for folks looking for a group like this.

There are many support groups out there and in my experience with them they can become directionless and draining without it being an intentional space for everyone - with the main focus that we are proud of who we are and we are empowering ourselves and each other to be true to ourselves as we navigate a knowingly scary world to navigate as trans people and those who love those trans people.

I want to hear from you - please let me know what you are looking for in a guide, support group, and in your life outside the group.

What do you hope will happen to you and your relationship with your child when the program is over?Let me know as many examples as you'd like - this is very helpful information for me to know so please be detailed!

If there were activities, projects, games made for you and your child to do outside of the group would you be interested in doing so to enhance your bond, connection and understanding of one another?To me this is about both parties being open to participate and want to learn not only about the other people but really be listened to by the other for deeper love, acceptance and understanding - and maybe most importantly to have a ton of fun together!
