12 | What Pride Month Is Really About

In this special Pride Month episode, we dive into the true meaning behind the rainbow. From the 1969 Stonewall uprising to today’s global movement for LGBTQ+ rights, we explore why Pride is both a celebration and a protest. You’ll learn what LGBTQ+ means (and what the “+” includes), the difference between gender identity, gender expression, and sexual orientation, and how to be a real ally — beyond the hashtags. We also honor the powerful voice of non-binary artist and activist ALOK (they/them) and share their profound message on why liberation is not just for “them,” but for all of us. This episode is a call to reflect, unlearn, and show up — for others and for yourself. ✨ Whether you’re part of the LGBTQ+ community or on the path of allyship, this conversation invites you to ask a deeper question: What parts of me still need to be set free?
