  • A great host

    This was by far the most relaxed and enjoyable interview I have yet to do for a podcast. More importantly, I immediately felt a kinship with Jaimie and her audience about creating the safest and most empowering world possible for all of our kids. Thank you for your service to the LGBTQ+ community specifically and to families of any kind.
