RB Fast is an activist, leader, envelope pusher, magic maker, and mother of a child who is creative, brave, and transgender.\nI asked RB to come on this show because I wanted to have a parent of a transgender child share with us what parenting can look like when there are major shifts around a child\u2019s identity - shifts that the rest of the world might not understand or might not accept.\xa0\nWhen RB and I first started talking about doing this interview, she said she had to talk to her son about it.\xa0She wanted him to fully consent to this conversation - as well as set any boundaries he needed.\xa0RB also set boundaries around this conversation, as you\u2019ll hear us talk about.\xa0This is such a beautiful and powerful example of sharing someone\u2019s story in order to help others more clearly and deeply understand something, while also protecting someone\u2019s boundaries.\xa0\xa0\nListen in to hear RB share:\n\nWhy she gave up her business to go back to a traditional job and why sometimes seemingly moving backward is actually moving forward\n\nHow she creates boundaries around sharing a story of parenting a trans child and protecting her child at the same time\n\nHow to practice curiosity over judgement if your child may be LGBTQ+\n\nHow parents can raise children who are strong allies\n\nSigning up for unconditional love couched in a universe of uncertainty\n\nLinks Mentioned:\n\nJoin The Shameless Mom Con Collective\n\nSMA Ep 256 with RB: The Advocacy Path\n\n\nRB on IG\n\nThank you to our sponsors:\n\n\nBest Fiends: Download FREE on the Apple App Store or Google Play.\n\n\nBuilt Bar: Built Bar is offering my listeners 10% off your first purchase!
