Scott Newgent - The Truth About Transitioning Children from a Transman
12/10/23 • 70 min
My next guest, formerly Kellie King, was a formidable woman who seemed to have it all. A trailblazing sales executive, devoted mother of three, & a proud member of the LGBTQ+ community.
But at the age of 42, Kellie's world was turned upside down. Urged by her devout Catholic partner & seconded by a health professional, Kellie begins to question her own gender identity. Kellie comes to believe she’s in fact a man trapped in a woman’s body & decides to undergo a wholesale medical Transition. Kelly King is now no more & in her place is Transman Scott Newgent.
But sadly, this is not a fairytale. Scott endured medical complication after complication. He lost absolutely everything – his relationship, his career, but most importantly his wellbeing. In a battle to survive, he went from one Emergency room to another, desperately trying to solve the mystery of why his health was failing him.
As he begins to recover from several near-death experiences, Scott delves into the world of Gender Affirming Care & Medical Transitions. He discovers that many others, particularly children, are being pushed to rapid Medical Transition which includes puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, & experimental surgeries that are being administered with insufficient warnings or adequate research.
Despite receiving death threats for speaking out, Scott is one of the loudest voices in the world calling for an immediate moratorium on the medical Transitioning of children, until they reach adulthood.
Scott, was recently featured in conservative commentator Matt Walsh’s film “What is a Woman?” that’s been watched over 177 million times & counting; becoming one of the most successful documentaries of all time. Walsh, who works for the Daily Wire, has publicly credited Scott as being the undisputed hero of the film.
Please note that this incredibly powerful & important episode of BRAVE JOURNEYS talks graphically about Trans issues, gender ideology, suicide & medical Transitions & isn’t remotely suitable for little ears.

Dr Ingrid Clayton - Believing Me
As a clinical psychologist & trauma therapist, my next guest, Dr Ingrid Clayton always strived to help others overcome their pain. But, little did Ingrid know that she, too, carried hidden wounds that she’d yet to fully comprehend.
A fractured self-esteem, substance abuse disorder, perfectionism, & a series of dysfunctional relationships might have indicated that something was amiss, but having been raised in a bewildering haze of gaslighting, Ingrid found herself constantly questioning her own reality.
It wasn't until Ingrid stumbled upon a case study by renowned psychiatrist & writer Dr. Bessel van der Kolk - which eerily mirrored her own experiences - that a profound realisation struck her: the word "trauma" held a deeply personal resonance.
In her gripping memoir, "Believing Me", Ingrid fearlessly delves into the legacy of childhood trauma inflicted by a narcissistic, abusive step-father & a broken, invalidating & enabling mother.
As I often say on BRAVE JOURNEYS, Just because you don’t name it or acknowledge it, doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. And yet, for those who are raised by narcissistic, gaslighting parents, they often doubt their own history, their own truth, & for many, their own sanity.
But when Ingrid's step-father Randy dies, an incontrovertible calling roars from deep within her – urging her to reclaim her narrative & finally tell it in her own words.

Jane Epstein - Complicated Courage: Sibling Sexual Abuse, The Silent Epidemic
Imagine the unimaginable: a young girl, only six years old, enduring years of sexual molestation at the hands of her own brother. It's a chilling reality that many find difficult to comprehend. Yet, this form of abuse, known as child-on-child or sibling sexual abuse, accounts for an appalling 40% of all sexual abuse cases against children. Yes, you heard that right. FORTY PER CENT.
Complicating matters further, many victims of sibling sexual trauma feel complicit in the abuse, often struggling to recognise it as abuse at all.
My next guest, Jane Epstein, has not only survived this Sibling Sexual Abuse, but has become a global advocate in the field.
As a young woman, Jane turned to stripping, substances & poisonous relationships to numb the pain. But when Jane became a mother of two toddlers in her early 40s, the dam finally burst.
Parenthood has a way of transforming us, especially those who’ve endured abuse as children. Becoming a parent compels us to love, nurture, & protect our own kids. But it also has an incredible way of reopening old wounds & forces us to interrogate who was there to protect us when we needed it most.
Jane understands this struggle all too well. Today, she’s resolute about breaking the silence & shedding light on this dark corner of the human experience.
Brace yourself for a journey that will touch your heart, challenge your perceptions & leave you with a renewed sense of urgency to protect the most vulnerable among us.
Please note that this incredibly powerful & important episode of BRAVE JOURNEYS talks about sexual abuse & Suicide & isn’t remotely suitable for little ears.
