A Hasidic Rabbi's Transition

from Glitter & Doom Hosted by BRIC RADIO

We've come a long way in recognizing that transgender people exist, with trans rights openly discussed on TV, in the news and in the halls of government. But imagine if you didn't have access to mainstream television, movies, or even news. Imagine growing up trans in that environment, and thinking that maybe no one had ever felt what you were feeling. Abby Stein was raised as a boy in a Hasidic community in Brooklyn, and became a rabbi before eventually deciding to leave her closed community and come out as trans.

Mavens Do It Better Heather Newman What is a Maven? A maven is an expert, sometimes a self-proclaimed one. We catch up with experts or "mavens" in their industries who do what they are passionate about, bring the hustle and light up an extraordinary spark in our world. Sometimes we eat, sometimes we drink, sometimes we do it outside, sometimes from a noisy expo hall, sometimes there is glitter, sometimes there is popcorn and sometimes we dance. But every time we talk about life and biz. We catch mavens wherever they are in the world, cause they simply do it better.
