Gender from the Inside Out

An Embodied Exploration for Gender Affirming Care

In a world where gender-expansive individuals constantly face microaggressions, misgendering, and invalidation, it’s not enough to simply know the right terminology or show surface-level support. Internalized biases and quick assumptions often creep into our interactions, impacting the safety and trust of the people who need it most. As a practitioner, ally, or advocate, you want to make a difference—but it’s not enough to just “know the right words.” Lasting change requires a deeper, embodied understanding of gender.

Imagine a world where every interaction with a gender-diverse individual is safe, respectful, and deeply affirming. A world where your understanding of gender goes beyond the binary, creating spaces where everyone feels genuinely seen and welcomed. With the right guidance and tools, you can be part of building that world—one that allows every person to live freely, without the weight of assumptions or harmful cultural narratives.

Gender from the Inside Out is a unique, self-paced course developed by two queer and trans clinicians with a passion for making gender-affirming care accessible and deeply meaningful. Through lived experience, helpful facts, and experiential activities, this course provides a journey that goes beyond “what to say” and invites you into an authentic exploration of what gender means to you.

With traditional trainings, it’s easy to stay surface-level, leaving harmful biases unchecked. Many well-meaning practitioners unintentionally perpetuate the very misunderstandings they hope to avoid. Without a deep, embodied approach, the impact of misgendering or assumptions can have lasting effects on gender-expansive individuals. This course helps you uncover and unlearn those biases, ensuring you’re equipped to offer authentic, affirming care.

Along with recorded content, course participants will also get free lifetime access to our ongoing community space AND quarterly community chats! Participants can utilize these spaces to learn from each other, swap resources, share about their experiences with course activities, and more. Community and connection are vital components to true embodied learning and together we can make ripple effects of change to disrupt the gender binary.

We offer three different price options to meet your unique needs, ability, and location of privilege and/or historic marginalization. Please choose the option that works best for you in this time and space of life and keep in mind that if you are able to pay the full rate, you are supporting increased access for others who would otherwise be unable to participate. We trust your discernment in a payment option that is balanced with affordability and interdependent care.

Rate options: $265 | $195 | $125

This isn’t just another training. It’s an invitation to reimagine what true gender affirmation means and transform your understanding from the inside out. Join us and become part of a movement to make the world a safer, more welcoming place for all.

FAQs

Why Gender from the Inside Out?

Our purpose is to create a safe, intentional space for care providers to challenge their unconscious biases and deepen their understanding of gender expansiveness. "Gender from the Inside Out" offers an embodied exploration that goes beyond textbook knowledge, helping participants cultivate an intuitive, empathetic practice for gender-affirming care. We aim to dismantle the ingrained gender binary and foster a new standard of care, one that is rooted in inclusivity, compassion, and respect for all gender identities.

We aspire to cultivate a world where care for gender expansive individuals is not just possible but intuitive, consistent, and wholehearted. In this future, misgendering and gender assumptions no longer stand as barriers to the well-being of trans, nonbinary, and gender diverse individuals. By reimagining how we understand and engage with gender, we aim to spark systemic change that begins with individuals and ripples out into communities, shaping a more just and affirming world for all.
