On this episode of Tamarindo, we are joined by Lizette Trujillo, mom and community advocate for transgender youth and families. She shares how raising her trans son has changed her life and how leading with love made her into the fierce advocate and activist she is today. This powerful conversation happens as hundreds of heartbreaking anti trans bills are being passed across the country and our trans community are being denied basic human rights. We hope this conversation inspires you to open your hearts and get more involved in supporting our trans community. You can learn more about the importance of allyship on Lizette's podcast "I Stand by You with Lizette and Drew".
