Parents of Trans Youth + Undead Voice: Jumpstart Your Voice Transition

Parents of Trans Youth is partnering with Undead Voice to bring you a transformative three-week masterclass series designed for trans and gender-diverse folks looking to start or refine their voice transition journey.

AND the good folks at Undead Voice are offering a free youth-only cohort (along with 2 free adult cohorts), because they know that trans youth need our help now more than ever!

Through a series of weekly live masterclasses, your child (or you, if you're taking the adult course) will learn essential voice transition skills and strategies to start falling in love with their voice!

This course is FREE. Can’t attend live? Your child (or you) have access to the recordings to watch at any time, as well as access to a special community space for the course.

Undead Voice is hosting Jumpstart Your Voice Transition in August and October. Space is limited, and they expect the course to fill up, so sign up now!

Here’s what you can expect from this course:

Week 1: Healthy Foundation + Goal Setting​
Learn how to warm up, protect your voice, and break through the mental roadblocks of voice dysphoria. Set clear goals and determine the level of support you need for your journey.

Week 2: 5 Pillars of Voice​
Explore Vocal Weight, Vocal Tilt, Resonance, Pitch, and Dynamics. Get hands-on with exercises for each and build a custom practice plan to guide your progress.

Week 3: Voice Coaching Q+A and Next Steps​
Bring your questions! Get live coaching and feedback, plus a full tour of Undead Voice Lab and help crafting your next steps.

Note: I met with the founder of Undead Voice, Nicole Gress, and she knows that privacy and safety are especially important when it comes to supporting trans and gender-diverse youth. Here’s how they're protecting participants’ confidentiality during the August youth cohort of Jumpstart Your Voice Transition:

  • Session recordings are for internal auditing only.
  • Youth can choose to be on or off camera.
  • No identifying information is shared. Ever.
  • Participants receive rewatchable lesson videos — not session replays.
  • Youth will use a private, youth-only community space.

If you have additional questions about their privacy practices or the course, they’re happy to connect with you directly at contact@undeadvoice.com.

During the Vietnam War, life-long pacifist A.J. Muste stood in front of the White House night after night, for years, holding a lighted candle. He was in his eighties. Sometimes others joined him. Sometimes he stood alone. A reporter interviewed him one evening as he stood there in the rain. “Mr. Muste,” the reporter said, “do you really think you are going to change the policies of this country by standing out here alone at night with a candle?” Muste replied, “Oh, I don’t do this to change...

Reader, you've probably heard that several clinics across the country have announced that they will no longer be offering gender-affirming care to youth under the age of 19, in response to President Trump’s Executive Order threatening federal funding for clinics who offer gender-affirming care to youth. These closures are a devastating loss to the families of transgender youth who rely on this lifesaving healthcare, especially given that gender-affirming care is already banned or restricted...
