On this episode Cody and Paul welcomed another intersex community ally to The I in Us, none other than the Australian Capital Territory’s (ACT’s), Jenni Atkinson. Jenni (they/them) is a proud nonbinary asexual queer woman with a Transgender history who for the past 35 years has been helping others live their lives happily and authentically. This path led them to meet Cody and for Jenni to support the intersex community at Canberra’s A Gender Agenda and other organisations.

This week also saw the commencement of Australia’s National Reconciliation Week (May 27-Jun 3). The theme this year? “All in!!” Passionate about Reconciliation, the unsuccessful result of Australia’s Oct 2023 Indigenous Voice to Parliament Referendum further fuelled Jenni’s already long-held passion and commitment to supporting Aboriginal communities to achieve their goals for self-determination, which led to a wonderful discussion about non-First Nations participation in reconciliation.

Tune into The I in Us, a space dedicated to the often overlooked and vital conversations within the intersex community. Produced by JOY 94.9 as part of their Rainbow Community Podcasts, this series moves beyond simple definitions to explore the lived realities, diverse identities, and personal stories of intersex people. Each episode fosters a genuine sense of connection, tackling how intersex experiences intersect with broader societal structures, cultural perceptions, and personal well-being. You’ll hear discussions that thoughtfully navigate topics of health, both physical and mental, fitness, sexuality, and the ongoing journey toward self-acceptance and advocacy. This podcast serves as both a refuge and a resource, amplifying voices that challenge norms and build understanding. It’s about finding the shared humanity in our individual stories and recognizing the strength in community. For anyone within the LGBTIQA+ spectrum and its allies, these conversations provide essential insight and foster a deeper, more inclusive dialogue. The depth and authenticity found here make this more than just a podcast; it's a continuous thread in the fabric of community building.
