Gender, Sexuality, and God's Will

<p class="p1"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">S14 EP12 | <a href="https://www.dr-lulu.com/"><span class="s1">Dr. Lulu</span></a>, a Nigerian-born pediatrician and advocate, shares her personal journey of self-discovery and acceptance as a queer person. Growing up in a homophobic and religious society, she struggled with internalized homophobia and rejected her own child when they showed signs of being feminine. However, after her child revealed themselves as transgender, Dr. Lulu had a change of heart and became an advocate for LGBTQIA+ youth. She emphasizes the importance of unlearning societal norms and accepting and affirming our children for who they truly are. Dr. Lulu also discusses her new <a href="https://www.dr-lulu.com/coaching"><span class= "s1">gender-affirming family coaching</span></a> practice and the importance of supporting siblings in the transition process.</span></p> <p class="p1"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">🏳️‍🌈Thanks to <a href= "https://www.cryobank.com/"><span class="s1">California Cryobank</span></a> (code QUEERFAM),<span class= "Apple-converted-space"> </span> <a href= "https://www.ourshelves.com/"><span class="s1">Our Shelves</span></a> (code QUEERFAM) and our <a href= "https://www.patreon.com/thequeerfamilypodcast"><span class= "s1">Patreon</span></a> supporters.</span></p> <p class="p1"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">🏳️‍🌈Interested in advertising?
