This week celebrates Non-Binary Awareness Week and the world is full of SO MANY INCREDIBLE non-binary individuals including this week's guest for Pause. And Rewind... Marley Conte (they/them).
Marley is an Italian trans/non-binary freelance writer, speaker, consultant and content creator. Their passion for diversity, equality, inclusion and justice shines through and they harness they own lived experience to educate people on trans+ inclusion, issues & rights. They place a real value on their work - and encourage others to hold onto that that rather than just working with anyone.
Marley is also known, on Instagram, by their handle @thenonbinaryparent and they're committed to creating resources for trans & non-binary parents cos' frankly, it's lacking.
That's Marley now and it was great to explore their origin story to see how they ended up doing what they do! We talk about growing up in Italy feeling a sense of displacement... and their love of their country & culture against its problematic LGBTQ+ stance. We also cover parenting, Marley's take on social media & phone rules and how their daughter is Marley 2.0!
Marley is a "work-in-progress" - the three words they use to describe themself and their origin story. Marley never celebrated birthdays before coming out as they never saw themselves getting older. But now as they are about to turn 40, there's a real excitement in Marley. When I ask what brings them joy, Marley responds "Looking in the mirror and it's like 'that's it, that's me'. That brings me joy". I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did!
