@thejeffreymarsh: “I thought I was the mother of three boys… and then one of my children came out as trans.” In this powerful clip from Inner Voice Episode 4, my guest opens up about how her child’s bravery in coming out as trans didn’t just shift her child’s life — it also sparked a deep reflection within her about who she was, and what it really means to be a mother. She said something that stuck with me: ✨ “I realized that being the mother of ‘three boys’ was never really true — it was just a story I told myself. And when my child told me who they really were, it was my job to listen, and let go of the story.” We talked about how often parents see their children as extensions of themselves. As little stories they get to write. And how scary it can feel to realize that our children aren’t ours to define — they are fully their own. For her, this was a moment of humility. A moment of love. A moment of learning to see beyond gender, beyond expectations, beyond ego — and simply be with her child as they are. ✨ Parenting doesn’t mean clinging to the story you thought you were living. ✨ Parenting means making space for the story your child needs to tell. And in doing that, she found herself becoming a new version of herself — a better, more honest, more loving parent. This conversation is a beautiful reminder that when one person in a family comes out, everyone has the opportunity to grow and become more authentic. 🎧 Inner Voice with Jeffrey Marsh — Episode 4 is streaming now: → Apple Podcasts → Spotify → YouTube (with captions & cozy visuals) 🔗 Link in bio to listen, subscribe, and reflect with us. 💬 Drop a 🌈 if you’ve ever had to rewrite the story you were telling yourself — in order to show up with love. #InnerVoicePodcast #JeffreyMarsh #ParentingWithLove #TransYouthDeserveLove #RewriteTheStory #HealingJourney #SoftnessIsStrength #LGBTQVoices #RadicalAcceptance #TakeYourOwnAdvice #YouBelongHere #PodcastClip #EpisodeFourNowStreaming
