Creating Inclusive Spaces: A Conversation with Alex Lynam on Gender Identity

I think that at this point, like the climate that we're kind of living at the moment, like all over the world, like it's put more fear in say, like younger people, like showing up as they want to show up, because there is so much like judgment and discrimination that comes with it, and it shouldn't be like that. So people are able to validate and respect.
Imagine feeling unseen and misunderstood in your daily life. This episode of 'That Inner Voice' hosted by Jennifer McKenzie tackles just that. Jennifer sits down with Alex Lynam, the founder of Beyond the Binary Ltd, to discuss the crucial topic of inclusion for the LGBTQIA+ community. Alex shares their personal journey from struggling with bullying and substance misuse to becoming a meditation and breathwork practitioner.

Alex’s story is one of resilience and transformation, offering a candid look at the challenges faced by the non-binary and trans community.
