What happens to a LGBTQ child when their home stops feeling safe, and how can parents become the foundation of Pride, Identity, and unconditional love? 

In this powerful conversation, Stef and parent coach Ingrid, a former teacher who helps families navigate the complexities of supporting their trans and LGBTQ children with clarity and compassion, explore the emotional realities families face when a child comes out, from fear and shame to deep connection and healing. Whether you’re queer yourself, raising a queer child, or still repairing the wounds from your own upbringing, this episode shines a light on what true support looks like and why it matters more than ever.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

1. How supportive parenting directly impacts LGBTQ mental health, safety, and identity development
2. The most common mistakes parents make, and simple ways to shift toward connection and Pride
3. How families can build ongoing emotional safety during transitions, holidays, or moments of fear
