After reflecting on their own experiences working at the Youth Pride Network, Kass and MJ found themselves thinking back to the moment they first entered the workplace, and the unique challenges, questions, and pressures that came with being young and queer at work. 

Young queer professionals have so much to offer Western Australia’s diverse economy, yet they often find themselves navigating workplaces that weren’t built with them in mind. This episode explores those realities, from identity and visibility to safety, belonging, and career growth and asks what support can make a real difference. 

To help unpack it all, we’re joined by Chloe Rattray (she/they), Program Manager at Out For Australia. Chloe runs a mentoring program designed to empower LGBTQIA+ people to thrive during the formative stages of their careers. 

Through practical advice and real-world stories, this conversation aims to equip young queer professionals with the tools, confidence, and insight they need to build fulfilling and sustainable careers.

This podcast was recorded on Whadjuk Noongar Boodjar and we wish to acknowledge the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples as traditional custodians of this land, its waters, and its communities. We acknowledge and pay respect to Elders past, present, and future as sovereign leaders. Sovereignty was never ceded. This always was, and always will be, Aboriginal land.
