Refine Rx: The Medical Provider's Crucible

Take Your Expertise to the Next Level

You’re past the basics.

You know the importance of building trust, being attuned, and showing up authentically.

And you get how to do the whole pronoun thing by now.

But then, the advanced scenarios start showing up.

Adolescents wanting gender affirming medical care, but parents can’t sort out fact from fiction in the media—they turn to you.
Hormone treatment and psychiatric meds - which one is leading to your patient's new symptoms?
Gender affirming surgery letter requests, along with “how do I find a surgeon who will operate on me with a 40 BMI?”
Chronic illness, autoimmune conditions, and disability in gender diverse populations (if you haven't seen this yet, you will)
Seeing colleagues describe themselves as decolonizing and queer/neurodiversity-affirming...and you feel like you missed the memo (and aren't quite sure how it applies to trans people...?)

TL;DR - you realize there may be more to this than you thought.

It’s not that you're a fraud or imposter...it's just that complexity continues to unfold, and it won’t be placated by good intentions.

The basics will always fail you here.

Not because they’re unimportant, but because they were never designed to hold this weight.

Trans 101 leaves you stranded when the conversation turns to nuance—when the questions are layered, the stakes are high, and the gaps between knowledge and action are too wide to ignore.

You’ve patched the gaps with what you can: an archive of articles, the occasional workshop, borrowed wisdom of colleagues, and the clients you’re honored to serve.

It’s worked—for a time. But it’s not seamless. It’s not intuitive.

It’s not enough—and you know it.

But hey…that’s why you’re here, right?

To refine.
To elevate.
To stop searching for the answers and instead become the person who has them (again).

You're committed to lifelong learning, and you know this growth edge is inevitable. You just don’t need ANOTHER Trans 101 course that leaves you frustrated and hungry for more.

You need a crucible.

***A crucible is a space designed to withstand intense heat, pressure, and strong forces in service of transforming what’s inside into something stronger, purer, or entirely new.
