In the wake of the most recent tragedy yesterday (November 19th, 2022) at Club Q, an LGBTQ+ nightclub in Colorado Springs, CO, I am publishing a formerly recorded episode that I never released. At the time of posting this, we believe that 5 people are dead and 18 are injured. There was a drag show. I didn't publish this episode because I thought it was too dark and heavy to be so early in the first season. I thought about revisiting it but then changed the format of the podcast episodes and it didn't fit anywhere else. But now, I feel moved to publish it. I'm leaving it as recorded in its final version, July 2021. If you want to learn how to support those of us in the LGBTQ+ community during this time, especially with the potential crunchiness of the holiday season that can come up for us, please listen to this episode and attend my Self-care for the Holigays: Taking care of ourselves and each other event. I'm co-presenting with my lovely friend, Cody Daigle-Orians (he/they). You can RSVP here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/self-care-for-the-holigays-tickets-446207447487?aff=AIAV Take good care, friends

It starts off with him encouraging you to do the work of finding your people in your communities (and to be patient with the process). We get into mistakes and how having a learner's mindset can help, including when others correct us. Learn what he's been told as a Black man about his career, mental health, and more. Mister Larrie reflects on being visible at multiple intersections and the emotional labor involved in holding those spaces for others, especially during his academic career. Early on, the pandemic inspired his switch to social media as his persona, Mister Larrie, in which he produces videos about mental health and crafting. We reminisce about elementary school and some of the projects we'd do as kids, which you may have done, too. Woof! Have you heard of the bear community? Mister Larrie and I give examples of our experiences, including critiques of what could be better for everyone involved.

Why do some people use two sets of pronouns? In this week's episode, Josée Sovinsky (she/they) updates us on what's changed since we spoke early last season, including pronouns and identities. If you've ever wondered why some people use two or more sets of pronouns, Josée explains what it means for her and how she tested they/them out before sharing that additional set with more people. They talk about the cisgender/transgender binary and how people can exist somewhere in between or outside of that, though we may not yet have the language for the experience. We also get into what it means to expand on definitions, create new terminology, adopt generic labels, or reject labels entirely (and how it's a personal process for everyone to decide what works for them). Learn why she thinks there is overlap between the LGBTQ+ and neurodivergence communities (including the parallels she has found in her journey with both). Josée reflects on bi panic, safety, unmasking, Heartstopper, affirming reactions and support, and why coming out this time looked and felt different.

Anger and fury can be turned into action that can create change. In this week's episode, Jesse Freidin (he/him) shares about his former photography projects and how he's surprised himself by working on a new series that hits close to home. The "Are you OK?" series addresses the current wave of anti-trans legislation by interviewing trans and gender nonconforming youth with their families all over the States. Jesse talks us through some of what it takes to work on such a project, including building trust with the local communities, families, and youth themselves. We also get into the steps to maintain his own safety, especially as his work has him road-tripping all over. We discuss how concepts like "being an adult" and age overall may be different for trans folks. Learn about how he decides what kind of life he wants for himself outside of the noise of any narratives our society can place upon us, including the boundaries he maintains. Jesse reflects on what the series would have meant for him as a young person and marvels at the access trans youth have to each other present day. Some self-reflection: Do I think the media is doing a good job of accurately reporting on Monkey Pox? Also known as MPOX or MPV. If I take road trips or travel, do I have to think much about my safety? Have I seen any LGBTQ+ related stickers on cars where I live? Would I ever consider being a mentor to youth if I don't do that currently? Do I have a retirement plan if I am not already in retirement? Am I OK?

Content warning for mentions of George Floyd's murder and generally sensitive topics without details. This episode is sponsored by a private donor. Thank you!!! Listen to minorities and thank them. In this week's episode, Ra Ra Rollins (he/him) shares why he claims “queer” and “gay” and the difference in meaning for him between the two terms. He ponders if he's Black first or gay, queer first, especially since not all spaces see him as a whole person with various, complex identities. Learn about how his work can be triggering as a Black therapist and what it means for him to hold space for clients at some of his same intersections. We also discuss how he pushed back in his grad school program because he learned from white professors who talked about white theorists and had white supervisors while seeing white clients. Despite that, he did gain two incredible mentors and friends for life. Ra Ra reclaims his energy by practicing boundaries, which did not come naturally to him, including by shutting down nearly all of his social media. There's also some discussion around rules and how he liberates himself from rules that don't work or honor him. Some self-reflection: What's the first physical thing I notice about people when I first meet them or see them? What's the first physical thing people tend to notice about me? Do I notice who is not in the room or being represented at work or at times when big decisions are being made? At what age did I first hear an LGBTQ+ slur? Who said it? Which slur was it? Do I have access to a therapist who represents me? What are rules I follow that don't serve me?

In this week's episode, Richard Follett (he/him) shares how each of his intersections has shaped a portion of who he is and that while some of them may seem at odds with each other, that's not the case for him. Learn about how he knew he was gay at the age of four but found himself trying to "pray away the gay" and entered into a heterosexual marriage. We also discuss how the Metropolitan Community Church helped him to "marry" his sexuality and Christianity. Richard recalls several times people assumed he was straight/heterosexual because of myths and misconceptions people have about gay men and how he pushed for equality in his teachings with his students and colleagues throughout his career. There's also some storytelling related to his relationship with Chris Angel. Some self-reflection: How old is the youngest person I know? The oldest? Do I have people from various generations in my life? Do I believe that people can be both gay and Christian? How do I handle any oppression I may experience, especially if I'm from any marginalized communities? Do I feel good about how I respond to those situations? Do I believe that my vote makes a difference? Do I know about any LGBTQ+ history in any of the places I've lived?

Learn about the 3 times she's started a Gender and Sexuality Alliance (GSA) club in her schools and how each time was different, including how she handled an instance of a parent pushing back. Some self-reflection: Do I know any LGBTQ+ people who live in the south? Have I been vocal or taking any other action to support the LGBTQ+ community as of late? Have I ever made a joke when someone was trying to open up to me? Did that shut down the conversation? What kind of greeting do I use when I address groupings of people?

He also talks about co-running a support group and some of the stressful moments that have come about as a result. When did I first hear about the LGBTQ+ community? Was it a positive experience? Has anyone ever come out to me? Looking back, did I potentially ask any invasive questions? Have I ever dated anyone who is trans? If not, would I be open to it? Why or why not?

Learn about what a "safety pause" is and some tips on how you may be able to support someone if it comes up in any of your conversations. We also discuss how she has a great practice of sending follow-up emails after networking calls by recalling what was discussed and any next steps.

Some self-reflection: When I think of a queer person, who do I see? When I think of a veteran, who do I see? When I think about mental health conditions, who do I see?
