It’s International Transgender Day of Visibility, so Ruby and Anne are bringing you a bonus short snack episode to talk about identity, allyship, and how you can put your dollars to work for the LGBTQIA+ community. 1.4 million adults in the U.S identify as transgender, gender queer, diverse, fluid or nonbinary. Let’s show our support!
