Madden is a writer, general radical lover and Lauren's conscience — educating and inspiring her since the day they met. Lauren and Madden have been in each others' lives for 10+ years now and have seen each other through many phases of life including career changes, overseas moves, being roommates and more.
It was such an (emotional) pleasure to share this chat with y'all and welcome someone I consider a brother onto the pod.
This episode takes a slightly different approach and is very much a conversation centered around community, and "how trans masc and AFAB folks reimagine and recreate more nuanced portrayals of masculinity" (to quote Madden).
Madden is joined by Travis and together they share wisdom, hope and all-around gentle compassion for each other and the community they love so much. Travis and Madden both wanted to make themselves clickable on the show notes so that others in the community may reach out to them if they wish to connect. Enjoy this incredible, loving, wise and warm episode.
