Eps 578: Love, Gender, and Advocacy with Cristina Olivetti 1l3n6k

In this episode of the Joyful Courage Podcast, I have a heartfelt and eye-opening conversation with Christina Olivetti — a writer, educator, and ionate advocate for gender inclusion. Christina shares her powerful journey of raising her transgender son, Jake, and the deeply personal story behind her memoir, About Bliss. We talk about so much — from the importance of gender-affirming care and navigating medical decisions, to the emotional highs and lows that come with parenting a transgender child. Christina’s honesty, wisdom, and comion shine through, and she offers incredible insights for parents who are walking a similar path or simply want to understand and the trans community better. She also speaks about her involvement with Free Mom Hugs, a national organization offering love and to LGBTQ+ families — a truly inspiring part of the conversation. I encourage all parents to tune in. Whether you’re raising a trans child or want to show up more fully as an ally, this episode is an important listen. Let’s keep growing, learning, and showing up with love.
