Spinoff show! But hopefully, this spinoff fares better than most spinoffs...

These episodes feature people who're succeeding in life! We attempt to better understand what they're doing that makes them succeed and share that in hopes of fortifying families.

This episode features Lizette Trujillo, a Tucson small business owner and community advocate for transgender youth and families. She spends much of her time volunteering for the Southern Arizona Gender Alliance, where she and her spouse facilitate a local support group for families of transgender, gender creative/non-conforming youth called Families Transformed. She also co-facilities a support group for Latinx/Spanish speaking families for the national organization TransFamilies.org, which is part of Gender Diversity. Her local efforts have brought her national attention and she has served as a member of the Human Rights Campaign Parents for Transgender Equality National Council for the last four years. When she is not helping families, she is participating in trainings at schools or at conferences to help bring awareness around the transgender youth and family experience. She helped create a website landing page of resources for families for the Society of Research on Adolescence, as well as a parent’s guide on how to Socially Transition for the Human Rights Campaign. Lizette has also been a constant voice at the Arizona State Capital advocating for transgender youth and their families. Lizette is a proud mother to a 14-year-old transgender son and enjoys being a mother above all else. You can hear about her experience, the experiences of others, and the importance of allyship on the podcast she co-hosts with Dr. Drew Cronyn called "I Stand by You with Lizette and Drew". Lizette has learned so much through her child's experience and is committed to continuing to bring awareness regarding the rights and needs of families of transgender youth locally and nationally.

Enjoy!
