Episode 14: THE POWER OF HRT & GENDER AFFIRMING CARE FOR ALL with Jody Bleyle and Nina Landey

⚡️The wildly delightful and defiant JODY BLEYLE of NW Homocore legends Team Dresch / Hazel and her fabulous spouse, licensed somatic counselor NINA LANDEY join Alicia to update us on their transformative (recent!!) experiences using HRT to reverse osteopenia and curb anxiety, what Jody’s journey has been like as a “Menopunks Lab Rat” aka primary film participant, how Nina navigated a BRCA diagnosis/previvor/hysterectomy/menopause and multiple pregnancies, and how the rampant misogyny in gender affirming care MUST be eradicated when we demolish the p*edo patriarchy and rebuild a system built for EVERY FCKING HUMAN BODY. ❤️‍🔥💪⚡️It was an absolute dream come true to have two of our favorite humans on the show this week and the chat was 🔥🔥🔥🔥!⚡️❤️‍🔥⚡️
