There are numerous ways to describe it, Gender Fluid, Non-Binary, Gender Queer and yet no possible way to adequately cover what it means with just a few words. How a person experiences and expresses their gender identity is varied and exactly as unique as that individual. Sounds great, right? WRONG! Living authentically and unapologetically YOU is truly amazing but achieving that can be exceptionally difficult in our current society.

Before these individuals were courageously living their lives outside the gender binary they were likely confused, frustrated and filled with feelings of guilt, shame and fear. It is time for everyone to learn, accept and create an inclusive safe space for any and all gender identities and expressions.

Takeaways include:

• What gender identity is, what it is not and how it is experienced.
• What the journey is like for those exploring a life outside of the gender binary.
• The importance of recognizing, representing and including gender identity in our industry and association.
• How to work towards and create a safe space for individuals living courageously outside the gender binary.
