Last week something unexpected happened to me. I did an interview with a big news outlet and when they shared it online it was super sensationalized leading to some horrific comments about me and my body.
This week we talk about click bait and sensationalizing bodies that work different- is there a way to get our message across without being a little click baity though?
In this powerful episode of The Unedited Body, Jackie sits down with fellow intersex advocate Kaylee for a raw, eye-opening conversation about growing up intersex in a world that rarely talks about it.
Together, they share personal stories, compare experiences, and open up about the medical trauma, identity questions, and strength it takes to speak out. This episode is about truth, healing, and the power of finding someone who just gets it.
Whether you're intersex, an ally, or just ready to listen and learn — this is a conversation you won’t forget.
This week something happened that stopped me in my tracks. My 9 year old daughter overheard a TikTok questioning my gender- and she asked, "why do people think you're a boy?"
In this episode I share that unexpected conversation and why I think so many people ask me that.
Being a woman is hard enough with a vagina, so lets talk about what its like with out one and how we push and pull ourselves mentally and physically to get one.
One TikTok comment led me to think about questions I have asked myself since I was young. What does it mean to be a woman? Is it your chromosomes or something else entirely?
In this debut episode of The Unedited Body, I share the gritty behind the scenes moments when I learned my body wasn't what I thought it was; I was intersex. XY chromosomes, internal testes and apparently- no vagina!
My life turned completely upside down.
