Hosted by Amethysta Herrick, Ph.D., a scientist-turned-storyteller with a knack for making complex ideas digestible (and dare we say, entertaining?), these podcasts explore the science, philosophy, and lived experiences behind gender and identity. No fluff. No fear. Just real conversations about who we are and why it matters.
