What happens when human rights become a political debate?
In this powerful Pride Month episode, Jenny sits down with global inclusion expert Joanne Lockwood to explore the growing backlash against the trans community—and why progress, no matter how far we think we’ve come, is never permanent.
Joanne speaks candidly about her journey from corporate leadership as a white male to living openly as a trans woman—and the privilege she didn’t realize she had until she lost it. Together, they unpack the recent UK legislation celebrated by J.K. Rowling, the global echo chamber of fear and misinformation, and the very real danger of silence.
They also dive into:
The systems of fear that dehumanize communities—past and present
And why allyship must go beyond optics, statements, or rainbows
Released in honour of Pride, this episode is a reminder that allyship is action. That empathy is a survival skill.
And that showing up—again and again—is how we protect the progress we've made.
