- Enough of the us and them already
In a world that is so divided, please consider not dividing us even further. I am the parent of a fantastic trans person and like to listen to your podcast…..that said, the us and them, is destructive.

Such a fan of the show and love Daniel B. Their journey is something inspiring and motivating!!
Above it all, good for you Jaimie for choosing to engage with that one guy who needs more love, but that doesn’t see us (YET).

This podcast was so uplifting when going through the fertility journey with my partner. Two kids later and I keep coming back for more. Other non-parent lesbian podcasts are great but I appreciate the relatability of this so much more.

Apple Podcasts5X men for real!United Statesa year ago - 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.
