Pride Love Letter to our Transgender kids (5th annual) - #123 Artwork

Transparently Speaking

We are Diana and Joy - two moms who each supported their children to transition in early elementary school to become their true selves. We are using our voices to reflect our child’s voices, and have navigated everything from family and friends, to health care offices and schools. We are here to share our experience and our learning along this transgender journey, to provide support and guidance, parent-to-parent, and if you find yourself on a similar journey, we want you to know that you are not alone. Beyond parenting, we are also excited about building a community of allies and chosen family who will stand together with us, Transparently Speaking.

In our 5th Annual Pride Month letter, Diana and Joy speak directly to their children, to transgender youth, and to every family navigating a world that continues to make trans existence extremely challenging. They reflect on fear and exhaustion while reminding listeners that history has always moved forward because brave, resilient humans refuse to disappear. Pride is not only a celebration of diverse existence, it is resistance, hope, and the quiet courage of continuing to be exactly who you are. To our trans community: We see you. We love you. And we’re standing with you.
