The Gay Podcast for Everyone
When I came out to my family, I was essentially asking them to come on this new journey with me. They were now the family of an LGBTQ+ person, and it was new to all of us.
In this podcast, I chat with parents who chose unconditional love over fear and whose supportive conversations are helping to keep the closet door open. I also chat with folx in my LGBTQ+ community, who share their stories so that parents, families, and friends can listen in and understand the journey more.
You don't have to understand the journey to choose unconditional love, and unconditional love doesn't mean you don't have questions, concerns, or fears. It just means we have to help each other through that conversation. Let's talk about it!

26. Solo episode: Awkward Conversations. Stronger Connections.
Welcome back to a new season of the podcast!
Awkward Conversations. Stronger Connections. That's the vibe for this episode and this podcast season because, sometimes, good things come from uncomfortable conversations!
When I came out to my family, it wasn't an easy conversation. But it definitely built a stronger connection. And, over time, it allowed us to recognize the similarities in relationships, in general.
As I get older, though, I've discovered that there are more uncomfortable topics to come out about (like MARRIAGE). Why am I uncomfortable with this topic? Why does the thought of proposing feel so awkward? Will my parents be as happy for me as they were for my (straight) sibling? Am I just freaking out for nothing?
This episode is a solo episode where I dive into the awkward topics, hoping to build a stronger connection!
