The Gay Podcast for Everyone
Formerly They Can't All be Betty, this is now simply: The Gay Podcast for Everyone™: the LBGTQ+ community, our families, and our allies!
In this podcast, I chat with people whose supportive conversations are helping to keep the closet door open, and we'll talk about how we can normalize conversations within our family dynamics.
It's possible to choose unconditional love even if you don't understand the journey. Let's talk about. Because awkward conversations are better than none at all.
Monthly podcast. New episodes the first (1st) of every month.
The Gay Podcast for Everyone
25. Dr. Jen Towns, author of Our Deepest Roots: Navigating Past Trauma to Build Healthier Queer Relationships
In her book, Our Deepest Roots: Navigating Past Trauma to Build Healthier Queer Relationships, Dr. Jen Towns (aka Your Queer Therapist) discusses the intersection of trauma and relationships in the queer community.
In this episode (season 2 finale), we chat about:
- how our experiences shape our sense of safety and affect how we handle situations (like holding our partners' hands in public).
- how our past experiences directly affect our interpersonal relationships
- how to acknowledge our trauma(s) and better communicate it to our partners
Jen is an awesome example for our community and provides an amazing resource with her book. Get a copy of Our Deepest Rootson Amazon.
