Erin Parisi is the Founder of TranSending, a 501c3 designated non-profit dedicated to the advancement of transgender rights throughout all aspects of society by promoting athletics as a platform of transgender awareness and inclusion. 

Their Inaugural Challenge of “The 7 Summits” takes on a goal never before accomplished: we are placing Erin Parisi, a transgender athlete, on the single highest summit on each of the seven continents.

She joins me on this episode of the podcast to talk about her process of coming out, what led to her to start TranSending, and her journey of climbing The 7 Summits. It’s an amazing episode filled with insights about her own journey of becoming her full self and stories from climbing these incredible mountains. I got a ton out of this episode, and I think you will too.

You can follow along with TranSending at their website, on Facebook, and on Instagram.

This episode is available on iTunes, Stitcher, or the Jon of All Trades homepage.
