87. Breaking the Binary (with Travis McMaster)

A Jaded Gay

Within the many letters of the LGBTQ+ spectrum, non-binary individuals embrace identities outside the traditional binary of male or female, challenging societal norms and fostering a more diverse understanding of gender. Often overlooked, non-binary visibility is crucial in dismantling stereotypes and building a more inclusive world where individuals of all gender identities can authentically express themselves while being recognized for their unique contributions.
In this episode, Travis McMaster, public speaker and host of Caffeinated N’ Queer, joins us to share their gender identity awakening, the importance of non-binary visibility, and resources for those who are exploring their gender.
