Nicole is the queer, gender-diverse founder and CEO of Undead Voice, an online platform empowering and educating trans, non-binary, and gender diverse folks to create a voice that aligns with their identity. In this episode, we discuss Nicole's personal journey as an SLP and what led them to developing Undead Voice. Be on the lookout for part two, when we will talk more about Undead Voice's philosophy and approach.

Fun and informative
Hector and Natalie tackle complex and emotionally charged topics with grace and compassion.
Transplaining
I wish I could go back and re do situations with all of this knowledge. Such an important podcast. This should be required listening for all SLPS and audiologists and students in the field as well.
Sincere thank you, from a co-worker
Hector & Natalie, I want to thank you for your bravery and for being vulnerable. I have nothing but respect for you!
