The One with the Intersex, transgender, lesbian, Christian, Baptist Minister: Laura Beth Buchleiter is here to upend assumptions.
CW: suicidal ideation
Laura Beth Buchleiter is a self-described Intersex, transgender, lesbian, Christian, Baptist Minister. But her story upends just about every possible assumption or judgement that often comes along with those adjectives.
Laura Beth was a husband, father, and minister who spent 20 years living with physical pain from an undiagnosed source and mental anguish from body dysmorphia. Prayer, Biblical manhood courses, and Christian therapy didn't help. "I was slowly dying," she says.
Her story almost ended in suicide, but she found herself in the ER instead. That night began Laura Beth's journey of finding answers. And as she began to understand her body, peace of mind followed.
Please join me for this conversation about the five biological systems that determine gender, Christian mysticism, and other life-giving topics.
