• LGBTQ+ Allyship Revisited - Speaking Your Truth
    May 13 2025

    In this powerful follow-up to our debut episode, I sit down with my friend and ally Jessica to unpack the intense (and sometimes surprising) reactions I received after sharing my truth in Episode One. Together, we dive into the importance of LGBTQ+ allyship, how to handle negative feedback when speaking authentically, and the emotional toll and growth that comes with putting yourself out there.

    We talk candidly about what it means to process public responses—both the supportive and the critical—and how I’m choosing to move forward with clarity, confidence, and community.

    If you’ve ever struggled with vulnerability, questioned your voice, or wanted to show up better for your LGBTQ+ friends and chosen family, this episode is for you.

    Topics Covered:

    • LGBTQ+ storytelling and identity

  • What Is LGBTQ+ Allyship?
    Mar 31 2025

    Being an ally to the LGBTQ+ community isn’t just about rainbow flags in June—it’s about showing up, speaking up, and doing the work year-round. In this episode of HOT AIR, we’re getting real about what authentic allyship actually looks like… especially for the straight folks who want to help but aren’t always sure how.

    I’m diving into personal stories about navigating these convos with my own family and friends—those awkward, eye-opening, and sometimes emotional moments that proved love is a start, but understanding is everything.

    Joining me is one of my oldest friends (and low-key the Beyoncé of allyship) as we break down how to be a better ally, why performative gestures aren’t enough, and how small actions can create massive change.

    Whether you're part of the LGBTQ+ community or someone who wants to be a better support system for the people you love, this episode is a must-listen.
