TW: Mention of Suicidal Ideation

On today's episode, we have artist and graphic designer Jordan Parvex (She/Her) join us for a conversation about coming out to conservative family and claiming your queer identity. Together we talk about how our parental relationships shape our desires for attachment, the "othering" of queer identities, and the expectation to be the model minority.
