Episode #22: "Lead with curiosity!" with Dr. Lulu

Dr. Lulu is a pediatrician, life coach, and mom to a transgender child. Transgender individuals are at greater risk for harm, including violence, bullying, hate crimes, depression, anxiety, and suicide. In this impassioned episode, Dr. Lulu talks about her upcoming book, "Allies in White Coats: Becoming the Culturally Compassionate Physician Your LGBT Patient Needs." Dr. Lulu shares that when your child tells you they are transgender,you make it about you...out of fear. As a pediatrician, Dr. Lulu says she knows the power of being an affirming physician, and of being an affirming parent. She tells us studies have shown that individuals need just one affirming adult in their life to thrive. All patients wish to feel seen and validated. We are all human. We all need to care about each other.
