An Interview with Gaia - A Trans Woman; On Self-Discovery, Activism & Empowering Others
In this episode, Tara Gretton and Vicky Essebag have the pleasure of interviewing Gaia, a 21-year-old diversity activist based in Bristol, U.K., who works as an LGBTQ+ Team Coordinator for The Diversity Trust. Drawing on her own experience and expertise as a Trans Woman, she delivers LGBTQ+, and specifically Transgender Awareness training. She also leads the local LGBTQ+ groups Alphabets Youth and Alphabets Adults. Gaia was trained in the Solution Focused Approach by our very own Tara whilst attending Beechen Cliff School, where she discovered the power of Solution Focus in empowering marginalised communities, and in inspiring young people to grow into the best versions of themselves. Welcome Gaia!
