Episode 44: Pride - Because No One Should Have to Convince the World of Their Humanity
To everyone within the LGBTQ+ community: while the world was busy trying to control and ignore what love is, you upheld it. You showed us all and continue to show us that love is eyes wide open, it's waking up as you are, it's collective and inclusive freedom, it's giving when no one gives back. The world thinks they know what love is and they may get there one day. Until then, take pride in your beautiful being just as we do.
