Since it’s June 1, I have to start out with a shout-out to my LBGTQ+ friends. Happy Pride Month!
As many of you know, I’m the proud mother of a transgender child. If you haven’t yet read the piece I wrote for NextTribe about her name change, here’s the link:
I Wanted to Be Excited for my Transgender Daughter
I also have a new essay up today about exercise—or rather, LACK of exercise. Somehow, I just lost any willingness to move my body in any way that will help it survive. You can read that piece here:
I’ve Burned Out on Exercise, and That’s Okay
And last, if you are not yet on the email list for my daily posts, I’d love to add you. Just comment here and let me know.
Here’s the post I made today, as an example of the fun stuff you’re missing.
Three Expressions Folks Get Wrong

I am also the proud parent of a transgender young adult. My son is so happy! I work on behalf of safe care for trans youth.
Thank you,
Lauri

Thanks for doing that, Laurie! We’re all in this together.
