Today we have a special guest! And I got to tell you, I have never laughed so much while talking about really hard topics.

Tuck Cornelius is a comedian, artist, poet, filmmaker and trans rights advocate who bends steel and breaks stereotypes. He's joining us today for a conversation about defying social expectations, surviving traumatic things and having the audacity to be yourself even when the costs are high.

In this episode Tucks tells us about his experiences with domestic abuse, suicide and violence as he unfolds his powerful story of survival, tenacity, love and connection.

He is a breathe of fresh air and a trailblazer in the field of authenticity and courage. I'm sure you will enjoy this conversation as much as I did.

And as mentioned, we get into potentially triggering and activating topics, so get yourself some extra support from the resources below.
You matter. You belong here. You have the right to feel safe.


Connect with Tuck and thank him for his courage and openness on instagram here.
