Ep105 - Katy Tierney: Transgender Awareness
For years I covered stories about the LGBTQIA+ community with a focus on the transgender medicine, the community and their stories. With over 1.4 million Americans identifying as transgender or non-binary, there is still a lot of work to be done when it comes to showing up for others and ourselves. With anti-trans rhetoric and legislation at all-time highs, now more than ever, listening to the experience of the trans community is vital. As an ally and in honor of transgender awareness week, I reconnected with my friend, Katy Tierney. Katy is an endocrinologist and also the medical director of Center for Gender Medicine and Wellness at Middlesex Health in Connecticut. During our conversation we talk everything from pronouns and not putting oneself in a box to the brain/body connection and how the decisions we make and those made by our lawmakers can have a powerful impact on the wellbeing of our trans community. Plus we break down the resources that are available. From hormone therapy and counseling to primary care, healing and learning how to be comfortable and love the body you're in. To learn more about Katy Tierney and the Middlesex Health Center for Gender Medicine and Wellness, you can connect via their website: https://middlesexhealth.org/center-for-gender-medicine-and-wellness The Human Rights Campaign provides a number of additional resources. https://www.hrc.org/resources As a trauma informed coach, mental health practitioner and ally of the LGBTQIA+ community, I serve to provide a safe place and support trans community and their families.

Ep104 - Pick Up the Phone: A Final "Good-Bye" to My Dad
It only takes once decision to change the trajectory of everything in life. On November 9, 2002, I almost made a choice that I would have regretted forever. In honor of what I call "Dad's Day", and to mark this milestone of two decades without my father, I share the lessons and love that were gifted to me by my Big Fish, my coach...my dad. Join me as I share more about the importance of time. How being too busy is never a good excuse. Why you should always look people in the eyes, listen for the signs and keep telling their stories. And how I always keep one ticket in my pocket, "to do with as I choose". It's a special club to be part of and one I prefer we did not know. But for those who have loved and lost parents, this episode of HIListically Speaking is for you. If this episode moved you in anyway, or you know someone who may be touched, moved and inspired by what I shared, consider passing it along and leaving a rating and review wherever your headphones take you. If you're struggling with loss or grief, reach out to me to find out how you can turn the loss into a lesson and laugh again. I did it and I know with the right tools, you can too. https://hilaryrusso.as.me/hugitout Connect with Hilary on Social Media @hilaryrusso Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hilaryrusso/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/hilaryrusso Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/hilaryrusso/ TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@hilisticallyspeaking Website: http://hilisticallyspeaking.com/ HIListically Speaking is hosted and created by Hilary Russo Edited by 2 Market Media Music by https://www.lipbone.com/
