What does it actually mean to be a good ally?
Ryan and Jessie unpack the ways people can better support the most marginalized members of the LGBTQIA2S+ community, especially at a time when anti-trans rhetoric has become increasingly common.
They explore how scapegoating takes hold, the caveats and "exceptions" people often use to justify prejudice, and the very real impact those attitudes have on the people they're directed toward. The conversation is also a reminder that allyship isn't just about what we believe - it's about how we show up.
Whether that's speaking up when it's uncomfortable, challenging harmful narratives, or refusing to leave the most vulnerable members of a community behind, small actions matter more than we often realize.

Your Therapist Wants to Talk About Queer Rage
Pride is often associated with celebration, joy, and visibility — but it has always been rooted in resistance, too. In this episode, Ryan and Jessie talk about Queer Rage Month and the emotions that many members of the LGBTQIA2S+ community are carrying in today's political climate.
The conversation touches on the growing attacks on trans rights, and the ways some members of the queer community continue to be excluded, even within spaces that are meant to be inclusive. They also discuss the shift in corporate support for Pride, and what it means when companies that once loudly celebrated the community become noticeably quieter when that support carries more risk.
Tune in for a conversation about queer rage, collective responsibility, and the importance of fighting for one another — even when the fight isn't your own 🏳️🌈

Your Therapist Must Challenge Their Assumptions [ft. Denise]
In part two of last week's conversation, Jessie and Ryan shift their focus to the therapy room and what it means to truly make space for Black and immigrant experiences.
Using Podcast Producer, Denise's story as a starting point, they explore some of the ways therapists can unintentionally miss the mark, the importance of cultural humility, why curiosity is often more valuable than assumptions and what therapists can learn from their African and immigrant clients.
At its heart, this episode is a conversation about listening well. Not listening to respond, explain, or fit someone into a framework — but listening with genuine curiosity about who they are and where they come from 🎙️💕
