In this episode of Over the Binary (OTB), Casey and Grace talk with esteemed nutritionist \u2014 and author \u2014 Robyn L. Goldberg, RDN, CEDRD-S, about the subjective BMI requirements that can limit access to GAS, sometimes negatively impacting a transitioning person's health and safety. As the conversation unfolds, they also discuss problematic media portrayals effecting body image perceptions and the sensitivity and awareness that some healthcare providers lack, in general, when treating transgender individuals. Presented by Gender Wellness of Los Angeles ( https:\/\/genwell.org ), OTB is a podcast hosted by Casey Weitzman, MA, LMFT and Grace O\u2019Connor, MA, LMFT. Casey and Grace will sometimes be joined by a variety of guests to discuss topics designed that expand the collective understanding \u2014 and raise awareness \u2014 of issues important to transgender, gender diverse, and gender nonbinary people. +++ Is there a topic that you\u2019d like OTB to consider for an upcoming episode?
