Having a child or loved one come out as trans or non-binary can sometimes feel overwhelming — there is a lot to learn and process! So, before we dive into learning the ins and outs of gender, we’ve put together some tools to help you slow down, take a moment to reflect, and breathe.
Music Playlist
Brilliant musician Laura Jane Grace curated this music playlist for you to listen to as you journey!
“In choosing songs and sequencing this playlist I tried to pick songs and arrange a flow to them that work into exactly what the playlist title suggests: Breathe, Learn, Act. Songs with wide open space to breathe, songs that have something to say and can teach you something if you’re listening and songs that inspire you to action!”
– Laura Jane Grace
