A beautiful and poignant podcast that everyone - particularly the religious - could benefit by listening too. I just finished the podcast and I’m unexpectedly standing here crying. Podcasts are so often a medium simply to entertain, but one that makes us reflect and more importantly feel, is a very special podcast indeed! Well done Simon! I also really enjoyed the way you wove your own personal story through the telling of Alana’s.

Thank you for sharing Alana and your story. I experience similar trauma from being in Courage and being bullied. You helped me process my trauma by listening to your podcast. I hope the Catholic Church continues to build a bridge to create reconciliation with the LGBTQ community, spread love, and make a space of belonging and acceptance for people’s authentic selves.
